• Abstract: This study examines the impact of AI-generated digital clones with self-images on enhancing perceptions and skills in online presentations. A mixed-design experiment with 44 international students compared self-recording videos (self-recording group) to AI-clone videos (AI-clone group) for online English presentation practice. AI-clone videos were generated using voice cloning, face swapping, lip-syncing, and body-language simulation, refining the repetition, filler words, and pronunciation of participants' original presentations. Through the lens of social comparison theory, the results showed that AI clones functioned as positive "role models" for facilitating social comparisons. When comparing the effects on self-perceptions, speech qualities, and self-kindness, the self-recording group showed an increase in pronunciation satisfaction. However, the AI-clone group exhibited greater self-kindness, broader observational coverage, and a meaningful transition from a corrective to an enhancive approach in self-critique. Moreover, machine-rated scores revealed immediate performance gains only within the AI-clone group. Considering individual differences, aligning interventions with participants' regulatory focus significantly enhanced their learning experience. These findings highlight the theoretical, practical, and ethical implications of AI clones in supporting emotional and cognitive skill development.

  The current study recruited 500 participants to investigate adult learners recall and recognition performances as well as their affective feedback on the AI-generated synthetic video. The results indicated no statistically significant difference amongst conditions on recall and recognition performance. However, adult learners preferred to learn from the video formats rather than text materials.

  This paper evaluates the impact of training undergraduate students to improve their audio deepfake discernment ability by listening for expert-defined linguistic features. Our research goes beyond informational training by introducing targeted linguistic cues to listeners as a deepfake discernment mechanism. Findings show that the experimental group showed a statistically significant decrease in their unsurety when evaluating audio clips and an improvement in their ability to correctly identify clips they were initially unsure about.
