Change Summary
OpenAI updated its Service Terms to add a new subsection on Prompt-to-Voice, a feature that generates synthetic speech from text. The updated terms require users to obtain express consent before reproducing any person's voice, clearly disclose that generated speech is AI-generated, and not remove or alter OpenAI-provided AI-origin indicators. Critically, OpenAI's indemnification obligations do not extend to Prompt-to-Voice or its output, meaning customers bear the legal risk if generated speech infringes third-party rights or violates consent requirements.
