When Kogan.com Ltd. founder and Chief Executive Officer Ruslan Kogan presented the online retailer’s results at its briefing on Monday, he decided to use an AI-generated version of his voice.
“While it may have sounded as good as David and I do, it was not us,” Kogan said on the earnings call, referring to Chief Financial Officer David Shafer. Using AI-generated voices for delivering the presentation meant the two executives could spend that half-hour working on something else, he said.
