Japan Actors Union responds to draft AI likeness and voice guidance
The Japan Actors Union welcomes the Ministry of Justice’s discussion of interpretative guidance on AI use of likenesses and voices. It calls for specific prior consent, accountability for users and platforms, effective remedies, and attention to non-commercial uses and the dignity of deceased people. The union explicitly says these are not yet final conclusions or new law.
