Japanese acting union fights back against AI-generated voice use, proposing strict new guidelines, especially regarding the use of a deceased actor's voice
The Japan Actors Union has issued new rules, guidelines, and restrictions related to AI-generated voice use.
Summary
The Japan Actors Union has issued new rules, guidelines, and restrictions related to AI-generated voice use. This includes an outright ban on the replication of the voices of dead actors, unless the actor had authorised its use during their lifetime. Per Automaton , these guidelines are meant to protect an industry that has been exposed to exploitation by generative AI. One example includes voice actor Kenjiro Tsuda (Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man) taking Tiktok to court in an attempt to remove AI-generated voice imitations from the platform.
