What if this was just regulatory capture of the licensed voice cloning industry in disguise?

Just deliberately make a point to regulators on how unlicensed AI voice cloners are cloning actors voices without their permission an scare Hollywood to introduce regulations to wipe out unlicensed voice cloners from the market.

I’m convinced that is what this looks like. What’s next is that OpenAI will settle and the rules will be defined for licensing cloned voices.

A market only for those who can afford the license costs: Big Tech, OpenAI and Eleven Labs.

Neither this article nor SJ's statement claims this is cloning.
