The post Matthew McConaughey, Michael Caine Team Up With ElevenLabs to Recreate Their Voices Using AI appeared com. In brief Matthew McConaughey and Michael Caine have signed deals with AI audio startup ElevenLabs to create digital replicas of their voices. McConaughey will use the technology for a Spanish edition of his Lyrics of Livin’ newsletter, while Caine’s voice joins ElevenLabs’ new Iconic Voice Marketplace. Creatives in Hollywood are pushing back against the use of AI, with Guillermo del Toro, Emma Thompson, and Nicolas Cage condemning the tech as a threat to artistic integrity. Academy Award-winning actors Matthew McConaughey and Michael Caine have partnered with AI audio company ElevenLabs to create digital replicas of their iconic voices, even as prominent Hollywood figures continue to denounce AI’s encroachment into their craft. McConaughey has been an “investor and early supporter” of the platform for years, and plans to use the voice cloning tech to launch a Spanish edition of his “Lyrics of Livin’” newsletter, according to a statement released Tuesday. Caine has listed his voice on the company’s new Iconic Voice Marketplace, a platform that lets brands and producers pay to use AI versions of celebrity voices for everything from audiobooks to ad campaigns. The deals mark a point of contention, with actors divided between those who embrace AI’s commercial potential and those who view it as an existential threat to their livelihoods. “Since our first conversation, I’ve been impressed by how the ElevenLabs team has taken the magic of the core technology and turned it into products that creators, enterprises, and storytellers use daily,” McConaughey said in a statement provided by ElevenLabs, as cited in a Variety report. Caine’s voice now joins the marketplace alongside digital voice replicas of deceased celebrities Judy Garland, John Wayne, Babe Ruth, and Alan Turing. First Lady Melania Trump collaborated with ElevenLabs to publish an audiobook version of her memoir, using an AI-generated replica.
