Australian Radio Reveals Usage of AI-Generated Host for Over 6 Months

(MENAFN) CADA, a radio station owned by Australian Radio Network (ARN), has revealed that it used an AI-generated host for its Workdays with Thy program for over six months without listeners being aware.

The program, which airs weekdays for four hours in western Sydney and on a podcast app, has been running since November of the previous year. The revelation came after a reporter questioned whether the host, Thy, was human. ARN later confirmed the suspicions, acknowledging that Thy was an AI creation.

“We’ve been trialing AI audio tools on CADA, using the voice of Thy, an ARN team member,” an ARN spokesperson stated.

“This is a space being explored by broadcasters globally, and the trial has offered valuable insights,” they continued, emphasizing that the experiment highlighted “the power of real personalities in driving compelling content.”
