Voice Over Notizia

Artificial Intelligence,AI,New York

Two voice actors sued artificial-intelligence startup Lovo in Manhattan federal court on Thursday, accusing the company of illegally copying their voices and using them without permission in its AI voiceover technology.

Paul Skye Lehrman and Linnea Sage said in the proposed class-action lawsuit that San Francisco-based Lovo is selling AI versions of their voices without permission after tricking them into providing voice samples for the company. The actors, seeking damages of at least $5 million for the class, accused Lovo of fraud, false advertising and violating their publicity rights.

Lehrman was told his voice would be used only for a "research project," while Sage was told her voice would be used only with "test scripts for radio ads," the lawsuit stated.Instead, Lehrman later heard AI versions of his voice in YouTube videos about Russian military equipment and in a podcast episode about "the dangers of AI technologies," according to the lawsuit. Sage's voice was used to give voiceovers for Lovo promotional materials, it added.
