LOVO, an artificial intelligence company focused on voice generation, has been hit with a proposed class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, with the plaintiff voice actors arguing they have not been properly compensated for the use of their voices. Lehrman v. LOVO Inc., 1-24-cv-03770.
The law firm Pollock Cohen represents the plaintiffs in the suit, who say they did not know the defendant AI company LOVO, based in Berkeley, would be using their voices in its generated voice services and did not consent to such use.
One plaintiff, Paul Lehrman, was paid $1,200 through the freelance website Fiverr for voice recordings and was told the work would be used only for "research purposes," according to the complaint. The other plaintiff Linnea Sage was paid $400 through Fiverr and was told her recordings were "test scripts for radio ads," also according to the complaint.
