News Summary

• Taylor Swift has filed new trademark applications for two voice clips and one image.
• The applications are “specifically designed’ to protect the pop superstar from threats posed by artificial intelligence.
• Swift’s applications were filed Friday with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
• In theory, Swift could claim in a lawsuit that any use of her voice that sounds like the registered trademark — or AI-generated images of her in a jumpsuit with a guitar — violate her rights, an attorney says.
