George Carlin's Estate Reaches Settlement over AI-Generated Comedy Special

Comedian George Carlin's estate has agreed to a settlement with the media company it sued earlier this year over the use of artificial intelligence.

In January, Carlin's estate sued the podcast company, Dudesy, for recreating Carlin's iconic comedic style in an hourlong special titled "George Carlin: I'm Glad I'm Dead." The settlement indicates that Dudesy is required to permanently remove the special and cannot use Carlin's image voice or likeness in the future without written consent from the estate.
