Ask YOURSELF this question BEFORE you audition or do ANY work that has an AI component:

“Is the compensation for this job enough to offset future lost work & income for the rest of my career?”

Ask TECHNOLOGY CLIENTS these questions
QUESTIONS TO ASK WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? HOW CAN IT BE USED?
Will the voice be used to synthesize & create derivative works by the client? Will the voice be used to create derivative works by Third Parties? If so, will derivative works be broadcast, commercialized, or distributed? Will new content be created with my voice by the client or someone else & will it be sold? If so, will I be compensated for that? Standard TTS, creating digital voices & persons, visual multi-modal interaction, artificial intelligence, virtual reality or other real-life based animated images, webcasting, advertising, performance, broadcasting, news broadcasting, audio books, intelligent customer service, intelligent device interaction, we-media dubbing, etc (this list is endless but is a good start creating a list of types of derivative work).
Will the voice be used to create, improve, or expand existing speech services models? Will my voice be used to improve existing speech technologies separate from AI? Speech recognition and generation including speech transcription (STT), text-to-speech, speech translation, enterprise office software, cloud-based neural networks & data analytics
Will the voice be synthesized and/or combined with other voices (derived voices) or will the voice be cloned in its current timbre? Will the voice sound like me? Will a new voice be created from mine & other voices? Standard TTS, creating digital voices & persons, visual multi-modal interaction, artificial intelligence, virtual reality or other real-life based animated images, webcasting, advertising, performance, broadcasting, news broadcasting, audio books, intelligent customer service, intelligent device interaction, we-media dubbing, etc
Will this voice data be used to train AI? Will my voice be improving future AI technology? Machine learning, AI Training
Will this voice data be used as the primary identity of the AI? Will my voice be the primary voice of the AI & be represented as the AI? Multiple
Are there functional limitations to this AI or is the AI non-generative? Ex; a recommendation engine, information kiosk, or other limited purpose? Are there limits to what this AI can do & is there a specialty or specific use for this AI? Multiple
Is the AI generative? Can the AI create new content on its own when prompted, without limits? Multiple
Are these usage terms subject to change? Can this agreement change at the client’s discretion? Multiple
Does the artist have the right to revoke authorization? Can I remove my voice from these technologies in the future or does the client own my voice without limitation? Multiple
Ask INDIE CLIENTS these questions.
Is there any part of this project that is AI-generated? Scripts, digital assets, voice, music, etc?
Are there any elements of this project you plan to sell as NFTs?
Would you be open to signing a simple agreement or the NAVA AI Rider that states that my voice will not be cloned by AI or used to train AI?
