Israel’s Foreign Minister Eli Cohen engaged in an unconventional interview with a digital avatar of renowned Israeli journalist Amit Segal. This innovation was introduced by **ACT NEWS**, a tech startup founded by former journalist Miri Michaeli and international strategic advisor Moshe Klughaft, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence into global news mediums. The interview, conducted to commemorate the inauguration of the Paraguayan embassy in Jerusalem, was notable for its seamless translation of the conversation from Hebrew into Spanish, and for its emulation of Segal’s unique speech patterns. ACT NEWS, which recently secured an investment that boosted its valuation to $7.5 million, envisions a future in which digital avatars enhance the capabilities of human journalists, allowing them to concentrate more on in-depth investigations and storytelling. The company has ambitious global expansion plans and is actively seeking talent to transform into avatars while forming partnerships with international presenters.
