ROME (AP): Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni has applied to trademark her voice with the European Union’s (EU) Intellectual Property Office, seeking to protect herself against AI-generated deepfakes. The application filed with the EU agency includes a four-second audio recording of Meloni repeating the phrase, in Italian, “ Io sono Giorgia Meloni” (“I am Giorgia Meloni”), according to the EU office’s records on Monday.
