FCC to declare AI-generated voices in robocalls illegal under existing law (arstechnica.com)

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.

Divide it up amongst them all? Is it that hard?

Is this entire thread just semantic debates over my opinions or what lmao

The idea of this being a 'punishment' isn't from the direct loss of financial support, but the aid to opponents. It doesn't matter who it goes to as long as it isn't the one using robocalls to canvas voters.

Do you think I'd get 10-15 GOP funding texts and calls a week if each one was a chance for me to use their funds to help their opponents? I don't.
