FCC Bans AI-Generated Robocalls After 2020 Election Impersonation


Listen Later

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has unanimously ruled to ban robocalls that use artificial intelligence (AI)-generated voices. The ruling is in response to AI-generated robocalls impersonating President Joe Biden during New Hampshire's primary election and discouraging people from voting. Under the existing Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the FCC now has the power to fine companies using AI voices in calls or block service providers that carry them. Recipients can also file lawsuits, and state attorneys general can take action against violators. However, experts warn that personalized spam targeting individuals through phone calls, text messages, and social media may still occur. Some call for clearer identification of AI-generated content to detect abuse of voice technology.
