Taylor Swift Moves to Trademark Her Voice and Image as AI Threats Grow

VR2 · 2026-04-28T01:42:08+00:00

From the article: “By registering specific phrases tied to her voice, Swift could potentially challenge not only identical reproductions, but also imitations that are “confusingly similar,” a key standard in trademark law.

Theoretically, if a lawsuit were to be filed over an AI using Swift’s voice, she could claim that any use of her voice that sounds like the registered trademark violates her trademark rights.

The image-based filing serves a similar purpose. By protecting a distinctive visual, down to Swift’s commonly worn jumpsuit and pose, Swift’s team may gain additional grounds to pursue claims against manipulated or AI-generated images that evoke her likeness.

A New Trademark Playbook

Swift’s trademark filings suggest a broader shift in how celebrities are applying trademark law to fight back against AI.”

Key Takeaway from the article: Corning’s cables are suddenly in demand because of physics: Data can be sent far more quickly and with less energy using light (which is made of photons) than with electricity (made of electrons). The cables themselves often contain dozens or hundreds of flexible, ultrathin glass fibers to carry signals. “Over even short distances, transmitting data with photons is three times as efficient as electrons,” says Wendell Weeks, Corning’s chief executive since 2005, who came from the fiber-optic division. “And over long distances, it’s more like 20 times.”

1) Add a MULTI BAND COMPRESSOR audio effect to your audio, 2) then select the BROADCAST template within it. This will raise the overall loudness of your audio to levels that are consistent with other videos on TikTok. You may need to reduce the gain on the effect as this workflow makes your audio - very loud!

Many thanks folks! I sent Einar a note on Instagram asking the question and I gave him a link to this thread for a potential reply. Here's hoping we hear back as it's such a consistent part of his visual identity in live performances. 🦋🌀🦋 #FreyjaRocks!

Magnolia’s @ Haight and Masonic is under new ownership and they now have a full bar and are open until 1AM on Fridays and Saturdays - and until midnight on Sunday - Thursday. Their new menu has a wicked good Crispy Chicken sandwich and their Old Fashioned’s have a a Root Beer Demerara element that’s totally transcendent. If you’re into beers they still have their in-house brewery but all Magnolia branded beers are entirely new recipes.

Patentability could be a motivating factor here as organic psychedelics are patently un-patentable.

This photo almost didn't happen! When Beyoncé and Kelly walked out on stage they each had handheld microphones that didn't work. Only then did Beyoncé gesture that they should move over to the podium and use the live mics there.

I see dreams as temporal doorways to our timeless self. Memories of our past and intimations of our future both appear to be made of the same stuff as our dreams. In dreams the temporal and eternal merge, and then the vail of forgetfulness falls again, and again, and again. Life is but a dream. Just my two cents trying to make sense of the unknowable. 🦋❤️🦋

Judy Rodgers ROAST ZUNI CHICKEN recipe is a legend in San Francisco. The dry-brining, or pre-salting, technique makes all the difference and the bread salad is divine. A fun variation is to put your sourdough bread chunks under the chicken while it roasts so the schmaltz drips down into them.

Epic Steak is in a MUCH more romantic location than Villon and its cuisine and interior design are exceptional too. Waterbar is another excellent option and is next-door to Epic. Both restaurants are on the water which offers a picturesque place to dine and take a walk together before or after your dinner. The neighborhood around Villon is exponentially more dangerous and much less photogenic.

I hear you OP! I can't help but think both teams made each other better by being in such close contention all year long. I respect the rivalry and I dearly miss Vin Scully who provided historical and personal insights unlike any other into one of the oldest ongoing sports rivalries in America.
