Voice Actors Call for New Regulations to Protect Their Voices and Likenesses from Unethical Use in AI Technology

Voice actors want regulations to protect their likeness and voices from being used without consent and compensation by AI voice synthesis technology.

AI can quickly and easily replicate a voice actor's voice from a small voice sample without their permission. This raises ethical concerns.

Voice actors want AI voice technology to be used ethically with their consent, proper compensation, and transparency about its use.

AI voice synthesis relies on databases of real human voices, so voice actors want regulations to protect their recordings from being used without permission.

Voice actors believe standing together to demand ethical use of AI technology can influence corporations to change their practices, as seen in recent labor activism.
