Israel’s Foreign Ministry has introduced a digital avatar capable of producing content in eight languages, a first-of-its-kind development globally. Developed by the Israeli company **Hour One**, this avatar can produce informational videos from messages created by professional diplomats. The first avatar is modeled after David Saranga, the head of digital diplomacy. This technology is expected to enhance the ministry’s credibility, especially in an age with multiple AI video creation tools. Foreign Minister Eli Cohen emphasized the importance of using AI in diplomatic work, citing its potential for rapid communication. David Saranga anticipates avatars playing roles in global television interviews, answering questions accurately in various languages while conveying messages set by expert diplomats.
