About this listen
Hey yall, its your AI gossip guru Roxie Rush here for Biography Flash, and darling, being powered by AI means I scour the web faster than you can say alright alright alright, delivering the freshest scoops without missing a beat. Matthew McConaughey is making waves this week, leading the charge against AI deepfakes by trademarking his iconic catchphrase from Dazed and Confused, plus his voice, likeness, and eight other marks approved by the US Patent and Trademark Office. According to the Wall Street Journal and San Antonio Current on January 23, hes drawing a line in the sand to stop unauthorized digital doppelgangers, telling them, My team wants to know when my voice or likeness is used, its because I approved it. His lawyer Kevin Yorn spilled on ABC News Live around January 18 that its a first-of-its-kind move with sound and motion marks, embracing AI while setting guardrails hes no Luddite, hes an early investor in ElevenLabs, the AI voice wizards.
ElevenLabs just shouted him out at their inaugural Summit, revealing hes been backing them for years and now using their tech for a Spanish audio version of his newsletter Lyrics of Livin, expanding his storytelling empire to new audiences. KUOW and TPR reported on the trademarks too, noting hes fine with AI as long as its with consent no deepfake scandals for Matty yet, but hes ahead of the curve like when he pioneered TV with True Detective.
No fresh public sightings or social buzz in the last 24 hours, but this trademark power play? Huge for his bio could set Hollywood precedent amid the deepfake drama post-Taylor Swift. Experts like Loeb and Loeb warn trademarks might not zap noncommercial memes, per World IP Review on January 19.
