Lainey Wilson testified before Congress during a House Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property and the Internet on Friday (Feb. 2).

The singer, who has previously been the target of an Artificial Intelligence based scam that appeared to feature her likeness in ads for weight loss gummies, was there to speak about the dangers of AI.

In a clip broadcast by ABC7, she testified, “I do not have to tell you how much of a gut punch it is to have your name, your likeness or your voice ripped from you and used in ways that you could never imagine or allow. It is wrong, plain and simple.”
