The openingWhy this idea is overlooked

The report flags the modeling industry's consent-and-compensation, biometric-verified licensing model as a directly transferable template for any other likeness-based profession facing AI displacement, and almost no one has generalized it yet. Voice actors, session musicians, and other talent categories face the same substitution pressure but often lack the governance infrastructure that ModelManagement.com built for models. This bank already has a voice-clone-licensing registry for voice actors specifically; this card is the broader, cross-category infrastructure play that a founder can adapt well before the pressure fully arrives in each field.
