The Chinese Voice Actor Forced to Prove He's Human

# Summary Chinese voice actor Shen Anyu has been forced repeatedly to prove he is human after AI copies of his voice spread widely online since 2025, causing platforms to flag his authentic recordings as synthetic and reducing his income and visibility. Despite spending considerable time and resources documenting the unauthorized copies and pursuing legal action, he struggles to stop the proliferation of his cloned voice, which appears in projects he never worked on—from movie narrations to conspiracy theories. The problem has become widespread across China's entertainment industries as AI voice-cloning tools enable creators to use performers' voices without hiring them or compensating them fairly.
