You're essentially banning satire here, though. There's plenty of folks making a living as cover bands or impersonators. I'm not sure what the answer is, but it's definitely not outright outlawing imitation.
- danans 3y ago> You're essentially banning satire here, though. I specifically noted that I'm talking about limiting the rights of machine generated mimicry. Satire by a person is completely different and involves the satirist's own style and experience that is derived from their human experience. Alec Baldwin's Trump impersonation is quite different than Trevor Noah's, for example. I presume both were also written by people, not LLMs. I fully support the satirical impersonation of politicians and celebrities, but I feel far less comfortable with LLM generated content in the style of Trump or Obama, especially when presented using voice synthesis, even when it is fully disclaimed as a fake.
