In der Entscheidung des LG Berlin II vom 20.08.2025 (Urt. v. 20.08.2025, 2 O 202/24) ging es um eine mittels KI generierte Stimme, die einer bekannten Stimme zum Verwechseln ähnlich klang. Das Landgericht Berlin II befasste sich mit der Frage der Zulässigkeit, der fiktiven Lizenzgebühr und ob sich eine Berechtigung aufgrund der Nutzung einer KI-Software ergeben kann. Wenngleich die Entscheidung einen wohl nicht alltäglichen Sachverhalt betrifft, können die Kernaussagen von allgemeiner Relevanz sein – jedenfalls regt die Entscheidung zum Nachdenken an.Das weitgreifende Komplettangebot inklusive Formulare zu DSGVO/TTDSG/BDSG im Beratermodul Datenschutzrecht. 4 Wochen gratis nutzen! ⁠⁠ottosc.hm/dsgvo⁠

Německá novinářka Patrizia Schlosser se nebojí témat, kterým se jiní raději vyhýbají: Hledala bývalé členy ultralevicové teroristické skupiny Frakce Rudé armády, mapovala fungování neonacistické scény v Německu i online komunitu mužů natáčejících ženy bez jejich vědomí, aby získaný obsah sdíleli na pornografických platformách.Ve chvíli, kdy začala zkoumat zneužívání a tzv. revenge porn na serveru xHamster, Patrizia Schlosser narazila na globální síť, která mimo zveřejňované záběry nic netušících žen vydělává i obrovské zisky. Aby se dostala k lidem, kteří systematicky natáčejí své oběti, rozhodla se nahrát vlastní „materiál“.Patrizia otevřeně mluví o tom, co znamená být novinářkou v patriarchálním světě, jak těžké je oslovovat oběti, ale i o tom, jaké to bylo, když se její vlastní tvář objevila v deepfake pornografii. O studu, vzteku a o pátrání po zakladatelích největších porno platforem, jejichž zisky mizí v offshorových strukturách.Silný, nepříjemný, ale důležitý díl o zneužívání moci, a také o tom, co dělat, když se sama objevíte v materiálu, kterým se profesně zrovna zabýváte.

This episode features an interview with Gaurav Misra, CEO, Captions, an AI video-generation company that allows you to create and edit talking videos with AI.  Gaurav dives into the practical applications and future implications of AI in video, and how these tools can enhance marketing efforts for businesses of all sizes.Key Takeaways:Video capabilities are improving rapidly, and are now at the point where spinning up an AI-generated version of you speaking, is likely better quality than anything you could deliver to camera. These capabilities allow marketers to spin-up and test content very quickly with far less expense than in the past. How people will react to content moving forward, when it will become less and less clear what is real, remains to be seen. Quote: “ Spun up a video and it's like me wearing like a suit… I'm delivering this emotional message, but I'm delivering it so fluently with all these words that I would probably never use actually… and I'm looking at this like, shit, I couldn't be like this on camera. This is such a good delivery, such a good presentation..  It just isn't actually physically possible. And I think we are at that point where I can look at that and be like, wow, I just couldn't do this. It's better than what I could do.”Episode Timestamps: *(03:13) Challenges and Opportunities in Video Content*(08:01) The Future of AI Tools in Creative Work*(24:11) Innovations in Video Generation*(28:28) Real-World Applications and Feedback*(35:27) The Future of Deep Fakes and Content AuthenticitySponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

Forget the Eiffel Tower, kids—we're climbing the recruitment rollercoaster instead. Upwork's shopping spree in Holland (Bupty? Buptie? Bupkis?), Denmark's going full Face/Off to keep Nic Cage off Viggo's jawline, and the UK is suddenly allergic to Fridays. Joel's out dropping Cole at college, so Chad is joined by Belgium's royal pain Lieven and Scotland's deep-fried-pizza poet Stephen McGrath. Loud Americans, entitled tourists, and the four-day work week—this one's got more punch than a Glasgow nightclub at 2 a.m.

Recently, a false story and AI-created image of Eminem and a student he promised to let rap with him went viral. Now, this story wasn't real but it was shared all over the "local" internet, with other variations including other artists.  It really showed how many people, when emotionally motivated - looked right past it. This isn't the first (and it won't be the last) that AI, deepfakes, and false information has spread like wildfire. This got us thinking, maybe we should talk about it? And how do we navigate in this new era? AI-generated stuff is here to stay, but is AI overall a bubble? Nick Mattar, an expert in how people interact with digital media and AI joins us to discuss.

Identitätsdiebstahl, Betrug und Manipulation - Deepfakes machen zunehmend Probleme. Denn die digitalen Fälschungen werden immer besser und leichter herzustellen. Gesetze, Wachsamkeit und Künstliche Intelligenz helfen dagegen - aber nur in Grenzen. Brose, Maximilian; Schroeder, Carina

O pomysłach prawnych rządu Danii na zmiany w prawie autorskim mówi dr Iga Bałos z Katedry Prawa Własności Intelektualnej, Wydziału Prawa Uniwersytetu Andrzeja Frycza Modrzewskiego w Krakowie, autorka bloga sprawnaedukacja.pl.

Denmark Says: You Own Your Face. Denmark just handed its citizens a legal copyright on themselves — your face, voice, and body are officially yours. Instead of clamping down on deepfake tech like a digital killjoy, the law flips the script and makes it an ownership game: if someone makes a fake of you, you can force them to take it down. Derek and Mike explore how this clever move stacks up against EU and French rules, the wild range of deepfake risks from silly to sinister, and why keeping up with AI might be the ultimate whack-a-mole.What Are You Doing in Denmark podcast:https://instagram.com/waydidpodhttps://facebook.com/waydidpodhello@robe-trotting.comhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFCSH6KqKooZmSx1GJu9CWZYjX8esjl2FDerek Hartman: https://www.instagram.com/derekhartmandk https://youtube.com/c/robetrottinghttps://tiktok.com/@derekhartmandkwww.facebook.com/robetrottingMike Walsh:https://instagram.com/phillymike999

Former economist and investment manager Gareth Morgan was caught off-guard by an AI deepfake using his voice and likeness, and he's warned people to be careful. The investment scam made the rounds on Facebook and Instagram and encouraged Kiwis to invest in a vaguely-defined US-based scheme. Gareth Morgan says his daughter showed him the scam - and it almost had him fooled. "The only giveaway is the backdrop, I don't recognise the house behind me. But everything else - the face, the lip movements, the voice, obviously - I can't tell." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reimagining Intellectual Property in the Age of Luxury Tech: I'm curating this exclusive side event in Geneva on September 1 during the Luxury Innovation Summit. Limited seats, apply now to join the conversation.On this episode, we discuss how the explosive growth of the influencer economy has created a fascinating new frontier in intellectual property law, where personal brands clash with corporate interests and digital avatars raise unprecedented legal questions.This episode unpacks the high-stakes IP battles reshaping the $20 billion influencer industry, revealing how savvy creators protect their most valuable asset, their identity. Through compelling case studies like Charli D'Amelio's strategic trademark registrations and the legendary "Battle of the Kylies" between Jenner and Minogue, we explore how influencers transform fleeting social media fame into lasting, legally-protected brand equity.But the legal landscape doesn't just apply to human influencers. We venture into the uncanny valley of virtual personalities like Lil Miquella and Noonoouri, examining how these digital beings, composed entirely of intellectual property, navigate contracts, licensing, and disclosure requirements. As luxury brands increasingly embrace these pixel-perfect ambassadors who never age and never sleep, the boundaries between creative assets and personas continue to blur.The global response to these challenges reveals fascinating cultural and legal differences. From Tennessee's groundbreaking AI-ELVIS Act protecting voice rights to China's comprehensive regulations on "deep synthesis" content, we witness how legal frameworks worldwide are evolving to address deepfakes, digital cloning, and the ownership of virtual identities.Whether you're an influencer building your personal brand, a marketer navigating partnership agreements, or simply curious about the legal infrastructure behind social media fame, this episode offers crucial insights into who truly owns your digital presence—and how to protect it. Remember: in the high-stakes world of influence, the law isn't here to rain on your parade; it's here to ensure you own the parade itself.Subscribe now to explore the intersection of intellectual property and digital influence, and join us at the Luxury Innovation Summit 2025 in Geneva this September for our special event on IP in the age of luxury technology.Send us a textSupport the show

Some Catholics no doubt took offense, but no one was seriously harmed by the Pope-in-a-puffer-jacket meme. Far more sinister deepfakes are on the rise, however, with scammers now frequently using widely available technology to bilk the unwary, and political campaigns marshaling AI to sow lies about their opponents. Perhaps the greatest threat is not the deepfakes themselves but that their mere existence can cause us to question the veracity of nearly everything we see and hear online and in the media. So, how concerned should we be about the proliferation of fake media? And what, if anything, is being done to staunch the bleeding? UC Berkeley Professor Hany Farid, a pioneer in the field of digital forensics, joins Editor-in-Chief Pat Joseph live onstage to discuss what the growing onslaught of mis- and disinformation portends for our society and what we can do to manage it.Further reading: Watch the full live conversation with Hany Farid on YouTubeFind out more about California Live! events This episode was produced by Coby McDonald.  Special thanks to Hany Farid, Pat Joseph, and Nat Alcantara.

Your face unlocks your phone, animates your emoji, and verifies your identity but who actually owns the digital rights to your unique features? In this deep dive into biometric data law, we explore the high-stakes legal battles reshaping how technology interacts with our most personal physical characteristics.When Facebook paid $650 million to settle a class action lawsuit over facial recognition, it signaled a seismic shift in how companies must approach biometric data collection. We break down the landmark cases—from White Castle's potential $17 billion fingerprint scanning liability to Clearview AI's global legal troubles for scraping billions of public photos without consent. These aren't just American concerns; we journey from China, where a professor successfully sued a wildlife park over mandatory facial scans, to India's Supreme Court ruling on the world's largest biometric ID system.Beyond privacy concerns, fierce patent wars are erupting over who owns the methods for collecting and using biometric data. Companies battle over facial authentication patents worth billions while "liveness detection" technology becomes crucial in a world of deepfakes and digital impersonation. The stakes couldn't be higher as these technologies become embedded in everything from banking to border control.We untangle the global patchwork of regulations emerging to govern facial recognition, from Illinois' pioneering BIPA law to Europe's strict GDPR protections and China's surprising new limits on private biometric collection. Throughout it all, a clear trend emerges: your face isn't just data, it's your identity, and increasingly, the law recognizes that distinction.Whether you're concerned about your rights, curious about the future of facial recognition, or simply want to understand why your social media filters might be collecting more than just likes, this episode offers essential insights into the legal frameworks shaping our biometric future. Listen now to discover how to protect your digital identity in a world that increasingly wants to scan it.Send us a textSupport the show

Tax season scams are nothing new, but David Maimon is tracking a worrying evolution. As head of Fraud Insights at SentiLink and a professor of fraud intelligence at Georgia State University, David has been studying how organised crime groups are now blending stolen identities with generative AI and deepfake technology to outpace traditional security measures. In this conversation, he explains how identities from some of the least likely victims, including death row inmates, are being exploited to open neobank accounts, set up fake businesses, and run sophisticated bust-out schemes with a low risk of detection. David breaks down how these operations work, from creating synthetic identities using stolen Social Security numbers to manufacturing convincing documents and faces that can pass liveness checks. He reveals the telltale signs his team uncovered, such as shared physical addresses, legacy email domains, and consistent digital fingerprints that point to coordinated fraud rings. With tools like DeepFaceLive, Avatarify, and cloned voices now being deployed to bypass authentication, he warns that the gap between criminal innovation and institutional defences can be as wide as 7 to 12 months. We also explore why financial institutions struggle to detect these scams early, and why layered verification, combining real-time checks with historical identity analysis, is essential. David shares the threats on the horizon, from increasingly realistic AI-generated images to voice cloning attacks, and stresses the need for both technological solutions and public awareness to slow the momentum of these schemes. Whether you work in banking, cybersecurity, or simply want to protect your own identity, this episode offers a rare look inside the tactics, tools, and vulnerabilities shaping the next wave of financial fraud. And yes, there is still time at the end for a great book recommendation and a classic Tom Petty track.

Lionel expresses grave concern about existential threats to free speech, particularly focusing on the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and the First Amendment.  Lionel emphasizes the importance of public education on these complex legal and technological issues to safeguard fundamental freedoms.  Lionel begins by discussing freedom of speech, societal changes in attire at public places like airports, and the perceived limitations on what can be said publicly by certain demographics. Lionel analyzes mayoral candidate Zoran Mamdani's policies through the lens of globalist agendas, the Hegelian dialectic (problem-reaction-solution), and the potential for increased surveillance and control through seemingly benevolent programs like free transit and housing. Lionel critiques the "bumper sticker sloganeering" and "incuriosity" of people who use labels like "communist," "wokester," "law and order," and "Sharia law" without understanding their true meaning or nuances. Lionel talks about Andrew Cuomo's controversial policies and then Lionel and callers discuss historical hoaxes. Lionel then talks about filming a scene for House of Cards with Robin Wright. While on set, he experienced excruciating, alien-like abdominal pain that led to an ambulance being called and being given morphine at the hospital, which instantly and completely alleviated his pain. Lionel then talks about economic and political theories, discussing figures like Marx and Engels in the context of communism's ideal of a "classless, stateless society" Learn more about your ad choices.
