FCC to declare AI-generated voices in robocalls illegal under existing law

Robocalls with AI voices to be regulated under Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the agency says. I'm pretty sure this puts us on the timeline where we eventually get incredible, futuristic tech, but computers and robots still sound mechanical and fake.

Most robo calls are not illegal as long as you follow the rules the FTC laid down.

This would have ban AI generated voices, so regardless of the content of the robo call, if it used in AI voice it would be illegal.
