Summary

Experts warn that UK law is failing to protect people from AI voice cloning, where short audio clips can be used to clone someone's voice without consent. Dr Mathilde Pavis argues UK law is "unfit for purpose" compared to European countries that have "personality rights" protections. Trade union Equity has filed AI cloning claims against Fish Audio for over 20 members. Baroness Kidron, a film director, is also involved in the issue. The article highlights the legal gap in the UK regarding unauthorized AI voice cloning.
