AI Tool Mimics Handwriting: A Breakthrough or a Threat?
Researchers at MBZUAI develop technology that can replicate handwriting, raising concerns about potential misuse for forgery.
- Researchers at Abu Dhabi's Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence have developed an AI tool that can convincingly mimic a person's handwriting style.
- The technology requires only a few paragraphs of original handwriting to be trained.
- The tool could potentially be used to help people who are unable to write due to injuries, decode illegible handwriting, and create personalized advertising.
- Concerns have been raised about the potential misuse of the technology for forgery.
- The researchers are developing tools to combat forgery and are being cautious about deploying the technology.
