Marvel Comics ke legend Stan Lee ab artificial intelligence ke zariye ek naye tareeke ki "immortality" ka experience karenge. 2018 mein 95 saal ki umar mein is duniya ko chhodne wale Lee ki voice aur likeness ko AI-powered tools, reading app, visual templates, aur music creation platforms ke liye use kiya jaega.
Yeh agreement Lee ki digital persona ko ElevenLabs ke Iconic Marketplace par le aaya hai, jo celebrity voices aur likenesses ko commercial applications ke liye license karta hai. Genius Brands International aur POW! Entertainment ke saath Stan Lee Universe ke zariye yeh initiative chal rahi hai. *Variety* ke report ke according, ElevenLabs ne Wednesday ko is partnership ki announcement ki, jo legacy entertainment figures ke saath AI integration ka ek significant step hai.
ElevenLabs ke promotional video mein, Lee ki AI-generated version ek nostalgic line kehti hai: “You know what they never tell you about legends? They outlive the page.” Yeh sentiment Lee ke kaam ke enduring impact ko highlight karta hai, jisse generations of comic book fans aur creators inspire hote rahe hain. Platform users ko comic book panel templates ka use karke AI-inspired images aur videos generate karne ki facility milegi, lekin in creations ka use non-commercial hi hoga. Saath hi, Lee ki AI voice Eleven Reader app par books narrate bhi kar sakegi, jisse unke iconic vocal tone literary works tak pahunch paega.
Voice model ko professional recordings se train kiya gaya hai, jisse AI rendition mein authenticity ka high level ensure hota hai. Chaz Rainey, Stan Lee Universe ke lawyer aur board member, ne is partnership ke significance par zyada zor diya. “Stan hamesha apne fans tak pahunchne ki sochte the—chahe woh comics ke pages par ho, convention mein, ya phir ek quick on-screen cameo mein,” Rainey ne kaha. “Yeh partnership usi tradition ko continue karne ka ek tareeka hai. Fans ne hamesha kaha hai ki jab woh unke comics padhte hain, toh unke words ko woh Stan ki awaz mein sunte hain, aur ab ElevenLabs ki wajah se woh reality ban raha hai.”
Is rollout ke hisse ke tor par, ElevenLabs Eleven Reader app par “Stan Lee Book Club of the Month” launch karega. Pehla book June mein Robert Louis Stevenson ke classic adventure novel *Treasure Island* ke roop mein aega. Har subsequent month mein ek naya public domain book Lee ki AI voice se narrate hoga. Promotional video mein, Lee ki replicated voice unke do famous catchphrases kehti hai: “With great power comes great responsibility” aur “Excelsior!”—yeh unke pop culture mein enduring legacy ka ek nod hai.
Digital revival mein do naye music filters bhi shamil hain: “Superhero Cinematic Swells” aur “Retro Hero Fanfare”, jo creators ko audio projects mein heroic flair add karne mein help karenge. ElevenLabs ka Iconic Marketplace pehle se hi Michael Caine, Judy Garland, Burt Reynolds, David Hasselhoff, aur Albert Einstein jaise notable figures ki voices aur likenesses feature karta hai. Platform ne Val Kilmer ke estate ke saath bhi ek deal secure kiya hai, jisse unki image aur voice upcoming film *As Deep as the Grave* mein use ki jaegi, jo 2025 mein Kilmer ke passing ke baad release hone wali hai.
Revelations ke representative Lori McCreary ne is project ke broader implications par zyada zor diya. Unhone AI ke entertainment mein ethical considerations par zor diya, kaha, “Technology companies aur Hollywood ko consent respect karna chahiye, name, image, aur likeness rights protect karna chahiye, aur human creativity ki value preserve karni chahiye.” Yeh sentiment AI se deceased personalities ko commercial purposes ke liye revive karne ke responsible use ke growing concerns ko reflect karta hai.
Initiative ke peeche ki company ElevenLabs ne is saal $500 million raise kiya hai $11 billion valuation ke saath. Stan Lee Universe ke saath yeh deal nostalgia aur cutting-edge technology ko blend karne ka ek pioneering effort hai, jo fans ko Marvel legend ke creative spirit se judne ke naye tareeke offer karta hai, unke passing ke baad bhi.
