Robocalls with AI voices to be regulated under Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

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.

    How about this: if I get a robocall advertising a product/service or a politician’s campaign I get that product or service for FREE and if it’s for a politician they lose $25k from their pac or Superfund for each report (which gets donated to their opponent)?

      yeah then you’ll have even more GOC money funding fake “Democratic Party” robocalls.

        Yea except if we have a publishable reporting system (for robocalls, like the ones you’re making up rn) it won’t work like that will it? Being that the concept changes the status quo… This isn’t super difficult to figure out if you try ;)

        Sounds like a semantic debate. Yes, third parties exist but they don’t get enough votes to win in a FPTP voting system.

        I’ll concede if you can show me where a third party has won a POTUS spot in the last 60 years.Sadly the history tells a different story.

        Maybe the 25k can just go to me as a victim, then.

            Divide it up amongst them all? Is it that hard?

            Is this entire thread just semantic debates over my opinions or what lmao

            The idea of this being a ‘punishment’ isn’t from the direct loss of financial support, but the aid to opponents. It doesn’t matter who it goes to as long as it isn’t the one using robocalls to canvas voters.

            Do you think I’d get 10-15 GOP funding texts and calls a week if each one was a chance for me to use their funds to help their opponents? I don’t.
