A few hours ago, news was announced that has revolutionized social networks, and not for the better: Survivors 2024 will have a presenter made with Artificial Intelligence (AI). Alba Renai has been designed and created by Mediaset as a virtual influencer who will be in charge of hosting Supersecretos with Alba Renai, where she will give the last hour of the reality show.
Faced with this news, not only have many detractors come out from outside the chain, but also from within. And one of them has been Patricia Pardo, who has not hesitated to express her indignation on her program Let’s see. “Let me touch you because I want to celebrate being able to be next to a presenter in the flesh,” she began to express, addressing her tablemate Joaquín Prat.
Given these words, the presenter wanted to break a spear in favor of his network and has assured that he does not feel “threatened considering that the new virtual reality partner is a woman.” However, Pardo has been very clear: “I do.”
And not only does he fear that he could lose his job with these new additions, but he also does not see the aesthetics chosen for this first presenter made by AI. “Of course, look, he’s not an old, bald man, is he?” she stated emphatically.
After stating that she believes that telling this publicly “was more than necessary,” Patricia Pardo has expressed that “luckily” everyone at the Let’s See table is real. “We get angry and we make mistakes because we are flesh and blood humans,” she concluded, before moving on to the program’s own themes.
This claim comes just a few hours after Algo Pasa TV announced that the Mediaset Spain subsidiary BE A LION had created Alba Renai for this new space in the Mitele app. In a few minutes, this announcement was overshadowed by the numerous criticisms it received.
“A shame because there are super-prepared people eager to have a job,” said one of the users. And if there is something that many have agreed on, it is that they find it a “shame” that they create a program for a virtual presenter and not for a real person. “It is something that a TV cannot consent to,” added another.
“It seems so horrible to me for so many reasons that I better keep quiet,” the negative comments continued. Although no one from the program or the network has yet commented on all the criticism that this has generated, it is not surprising that they will soon have to do so.
