But questions loom about how Utah's hopes for DAO member anonymity will fare when they come up against recently adopted provisions under U.S. federal law that seek to promote transparency by forcing disclosure of the individuals who stand behind legal entities. Can this seeming conflict be resolved? Can the autonomous ultimately remain anonymous?

Over the past few months, AI voice tools have been more widely released, and they work. It is trivial to use them to create a track that sounds, to the casual listener, like it was recorded by the famous artist of your choosing, and the micro-genre of AI-generated "covers" of existing songs by anomalous artists (or other public figures, like President Biden) has exploded on TikTok. So what legal recourse, if any, do these artists have?
