The FCC is looking to apply existing statues to robocalls powered by AI.
The agency believes the use of AI voice cloning technology in robocall scams should be criminalized under the 1991 Telephone Consumer Protection Act. Current laws require telemarketers to have explicit consent from consumers before they can make automated calls using “an artificial or prerecorded” voice. Rosenworcel believes the same rules should apply for AI-generated robo-calls too.
