George Carlin\'s estate has filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against Dudesy, a media company, for using generative artificial intelligence to create a fake comedy special imitating Carlin\'s voice and comedic style without permission. The AI-generated special, titled \'George Carlin: I\'m Glad I\'m Dead,\' was released on Dudesy\'s YouTube channel and has received nearly 500,000 views. Carlin\'s estate is seeking unspecified compensation for damages and the immediate removal of the special. Family members and fans have condemned the special, considering it a mockery of Carlin\'s work and legacy.
