Actor Michael Caine licenses his voice to AI company ElevenLabs for use in speech apps, sparking ethical debates.
Actor Michael Caine has licensed his voice to AI firm ElevenLabs for use in their ElevenReader app and Iconic Marketplace, allowing his distinctive Cockney-accented voice to be used in synthetic speech.
Known for his East London roots and refusal to alter his accent, Caine’s voice has become a cultural symbol of Britishness and authenticity.
