Disclaimer

1. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer

1.1 Synthetic Voice Technology

My Line Reader uses third-party text-to-speech (TTS) AI services to generate synthetic voice content for script rehearsal. Users must understand and acknowledge the following:

• Not Real Human Voices: All voice outputs are computer-generated simulations created by artificial intelligence models. They are NOT recordings of real human actors or voice performers.
• Quality Variability: AI voice quality can vary significantly. Voices may exhibit robotic qualities, unnatural intonation, awkward pauses, or mispronunciations.
• Pronunciation Errors: The AI may mispronounce names, technical terms, foreign words, or uncommon vocabulary. Always verify pronunciation with authoritative sources.
• Emotional Limitations: While the Service attempts to provide emotional delivery hints, AI voices cannot truly convey human emotion, nuance, or artistic interpretation.
• Context Misunderstanding: AI may misinterpret context, sarcasm, subtext, or theatrical intent, leading to inappropriate delivery.

1.2 AI Script Parsing

The Service uses advanced AI to automatically parse theatrical scripts. Users acknowledge that:

• Parsing Errors: AI parsing may incorrectly identify characters, misattribute dialogue, miss stage directions, or fail to parse non-standard script formats.
• Character Detection: The AI may merge distinct characters, split one character into multiple entries, or fail to detect minor characters.
• Format Dependencies: Parsing accuracy depends heavily on script formatting. Non-standard, handwritten, or poorly formatted scripts may not parse correctly.
• Manual Review Required: You are responsible for reviewing and verifying all parsed content before use.

2. Not a Substitute for Professional Services

My Line Reader is a practice tool and is NOT a substitute for:

• Professional acting coaching or instruction
• Working with human scene partners, directors, or acting teachers
• Professional voice acting or audiobook narration services
• Professional script analysis or dramaturgical consultation
• Casting directors, agents, or talent management
• Dialect coaching or accent training
• Theatre production or performance preparation

The Service is intended solely as a supplemental practice tool. It should be used in conjunction with, not in place of, traditional actor training and professional guidance.

3. Copyright and Licensing Disclaimer

3.1 User Responsibility for Content

You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the legal right to upload and use any script content.

• Copyrighted Scripts: Most theatrical scripts are protected by copyright. Uploading copyrighted scripts without permission may constitute copyright infringement.
• Performance Rights: Just because you have been cast in a role or have purchased a script does not automatically grant you the right to reproduce, copy, or create derivative works.
• Personal Use Only: Any use of the Service should be for personal practice and education only, not for commercial distribution or public performance.
