Peter Caulfield on Campaigning, Artificial Intelligence & Russell T Davies

Peter Caulfield is an actor, singer and passionate activist who has become the leading voice fighting for legal ownership of our own voices.

Best known for his work with Russell T Davies on the ground-breaking series Queer as Folk, Cucumber and Tiptoe, Peter uses his platform to speak truth to power about the issues that matter most — from Palestinian solidarity to the unchecked dangers of artificial intelligence.

Beyond the screen, Peter is the face of "Save Our Voices Now", a campaign demanding statutory rights for every UK citizen to have legal ownership over their own voice before AI cloning decimates careers, steals identities, and fundamentally erases what makes us human.

On this episode of The Pieces, Bimini and Peter dive into the impact of Russell T Davies' storytelling, Peter's continuous campaigning and how a single word "Now" can create real change.

They also talk about Peter's urgent new mission: stopping AI voice cloning before it's too late. They unpack the terrifying reality that voices are data being harvested from social media, algorithms are being piloted in warfare, and that tech billionaires are openly admitting AI will "probably destroy the planet, but create amazing software" in the meantime.

Peter tackles surveillance capitalism, the humanisation of AI as dangerously misleading, and why this isn't just an actor's issue - it affects every teenager on TikTok and Snapchat who are unknowingly giving their voice away.
