FCC moves to outlaw AI-generated robocalls

Key Points:

  • The FCC proposes to rule AI-generated voice cloning tech in robocalls as fundamentally illegal to facilitate combating fraudulent activities.
  • Even though some automated calls are necessary and legal, the FCC seeks to crack down on illegal applications by issuing a Declaratory Ruling regarding AI-powered voice cloning.
  • The FCC is using the Telephone Consumer Protection Act as the basis for charging robocallers and proposes to clarify the legality of AI-powered voice cloning in robocalls.

Summary:

In a press release, the FCC proposed ruling AI-generated voice cloning tech in robocalls as fundamentally illegal to aid in the crackdown on fraudulent activities.

 

Even though robocalls are inherently illegal, some automated calls are necessary and legal. It is only when they are found to be breaking the law that authorities can intervene.

 

The FCC proposes to issue a Declaratory Ruling that AI-powered voice cloning in robocalls falls under the “artificial” category prohibited by the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.
