In 2025, AI-generated deepfakes are cemented into an increasing push for the necessary protection of the unique attributes of all Americans: good, bad, and ugly. The Act creates new federal property that matches the voices and similarities of all individuals, establishes guardrails for responsible innovation, protects the First Amendment, and gives effective begs to AI deepfakes and voice clone victims. Martina has ensured honest expression with her fans by sharing why no-fake behavior represents an important step in protecting her career and her family.
