In March, the London Times detailed an audio project recreating John F Kennedy’s “lost” Dallas speech, which he was due to deliver the day he was assassinated. A total of 831 existing JFK speeches and interviews, and 116,777 “sound units” were analysed to create the speech that was never spoken. The “JFK Unsilenced” project was widely shared and praised, but I found it unnerving. The potential for manufacturing things that were never said by world leaders for nefarious means is clear.
