Lainey Wilson Advocates for AI Legislation in Congressional Testimony

Country music star emphasizes the need for legal protections against unauthorized use of artists' voices and likenesses by AI technologies.

Lainey Wilson testified before Congress on the misuse of AI, emphasizing the personal violation of having one's voice and likeness used without consent.
Wilson highlighted the negative impact of AI on artists and the general public, including unauthorized ads and deepfake pornography.
She advocated for the passage of the No AI FRAUD Act, aiming to protect individuals' rights to their likeness and voice against AI-generated fakes.
The proposed legislation would establish property rights in one's likeness and voice, with penalties for unauthorized use.
Concerns were raised about the legislation's potential to limit freedom of expression and its implications for artists' control over their own voices and likenesses.
