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.

I feel like most of the decent filtering of these types of calls are happening at the carrier level at this point. At least in my experience. They've been getting better at filtering them out before your phone even rings...

But I'm not sure that's how it should be. This is why regulatory agencies exist in the first place. What's the point if there is zero enforcement?
