With the introduction of software like ChatGPT, the advancements to AI have been exponentially increasing in recent years. Despite such technology being relatively new to us, some companies have already utilized it in unique ways.
Odisha TV, an Indian cable television station, is a perfect example of one such company: it has introduced the world's first-ever regional AI news anchor, going by the name Lisa.
