At least in the USA: You absolutely can control the distribution of your likeness if it wasn't taken in public.
Photos of you in public can't be controlled because you have no reasonable expectation of privacy in public. If someone takes a picture of you privately, even if not for commercial purposes, you can absolutely control the use of that image unless you release it.
But your AI generated likeness is now public domain, so explain how you have control over it's distribution, it's ok, I can keep repeating myself till everyone catches up.
You can keep repeating yourself all day long; it's clear you only read the clickbaity headline and not the article that clarified creative credit and copyright can't be owned directly by an AI. Your entire premise is wrong.
Yes, it is. But if it wasn't I'd still be right.
