The US government's Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has banned robocalls using AI-generated voice tools. The primary objective behind the ban on such tools is to stop scammers and those who mislead voters. This decision is part of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, a 1991 law that limits junk calls with artificial and prerecorded voice messages. FCC Chairperson Jessica Rosenworcel stated that it seemed like something from the far-off future, but the threat is already here.
