Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has registered a four-second audio recording of her own voice with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EU IPO). La Repubblica reported that this move is aimed at safeguarding Meloni from the potential use of fake voice recordings generated by artificial intelligence. The audio clip contains the phrase "Io sono Giorgia Meloni" ("I am Giorgia Meloni"), which the prime minister has trademarked as a linguistic trademark.
This phrase is reminiscent of another statement, "I am Giorgia, I am a woman, I am a mother, I am Italian, I am a Christian", which has become an unofficial trademark for Meloni. In June, AI-generated images of Meloni appeared online, prompting her to criticize those responsible for spreading such fake content. Meloni warned about the dangers of deepfakes, stating that they can deceive, manipulate, and harm individuals, and that many others might face similar threats in the future.
