China's ByteDance has created a new way for people to immediately change their voice into another person's using generative artificial intelligence technology. People have already this year used AI to impersonate President Joe Biden as the 2024 election nears and pop star Taylor Swift . The output occurs at the speed of livestreaming, with just 124 milliseconds of latency, according to the paper, which noted that AI voice conversion technology thus far has mostly only been effective "offline." It also used open-source code from Meta's Audiodec , which Meta describes as a "plug-and-play benchmark for audio codec applications." They suggested people report illegal usage of voice conversion to the appropriate authorities.

But more recently, it has accused the U.S.'s National Security Agency of hacking specific targets. China accused a top U.S. spy agency of stealing Chinese user data and infiltrating the country's telecommunications infrastructure, according to a report published Tuesday, which lays out details of the alleged cyberattack method. Chinese state media last week first reported on an alleged attack by the U.S. National Security Agency on China's government funded Northwestern Polytechnical University and promised that more details would follow. Tuesday's report from China's National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center and cybersecurity company 360, lays out the specific ways the alleged attack was carried out. The NSA was able to get into the university's network, get the credentials of people who worked there, which allowed the U.S. agency to further penetrate the systems, the report alleged.

But more recently, it has accused the U.S.'s National Security Agency of hacking specific targets. A U.S. intelligence agency gained access to China's telecommunications network after hacking a university, Chinese state media claimed Thursday. American hackers stole "core technology data including key network equipment configuration, network management data, and core operational data," and other files, according to the Global Times. As part of the NSA's hack, the agency infiltrated Chinese telecommunications operators so that the U.S. could "control the country's infrastructure," the Global Times alleged. The Global Times, citing its unnamed source, reported that more details about the attack on Northwestern Polytechnical University will be released soon.
