    This seems like a battle he cant win.

    None of us can win it. I already see tons of Ai channels on YouTube where machines are taking on the voices of celebrities and saying things from a script… And those channels actually get followers and make money.

    So my conclusion is, these services will become more and more filled with ai bullshit and most users wont even care.

    I predict, due to market forces, more than half of YouTube videos will be Ai generated in 2030. And most users will not mind it.

    The actor has instead acquired a soundmark from the U.S. Patent And Trademark Office on “a man saying ‘ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT’, wherein the first syllable of the first two words is at a lower pitch than the second syllable, and the first syllable of the last word is at a higher pitch than the second syllable.”

    Only when “a man” says it? That sounds problematic and easily circumvented by AI, which is what the trademark was intended to protect against.

      you’ll need to record it

      a man saying ‘ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT’, wherein the first syllable of the first two words is at a lower pitch than the second syllable, and the first syllable of the last word is at a higher pitch than the second syllable.

      If you say it in front of the mirror at exactly 3am, a court official will spawn at your location to serve you the papers.

    I would have thought he’d trademark “That’s what I love about these high school girls, man…

    If the machines cared about IP protections, they wouldn’t be so much of an issue now.

    So he doesn’t really love those redheads?

    That’s okay… I understand. We are unloveable after all.
