## Resource

AI voice and face cloning is exposing gaping legal holes in the UK, where outdated laws fail to protect individuals from unauthorized use of their likeness—while Europe moves ahead with stronger personality rights. One voice artist discovered her voice cloned and sold online, sparking distress and financial loss. The UK government admits the risks and plans a consultation, but critics warn it’s too late to prioritize big tech over citizens’ rights, especially as UK creatives earn less than their US peers for their likeness. A global reckoning is underway—will the UK catch up before it’s too late? Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
