The ruling is to treat calls with AI-generated voices the same as other robocalls, which are already illegal.

Ok so what’s the point of another new ruling to make them especially illegal if they were already illegal? I am slow today. :)
There is a law about "artificial or prerecorded voice messages", the law was written in 1991 before modern voice generation programs so it might be unclear if it applies to them, the commission now declared that it does. This is often how it works in the U.S., congress passes a somewhat vague and general law, which authorizes an agency (in this case the FCC) to develop more detailed regulations.
Yeah, super unclear whether "Artificial" includes "Artifical Intelligence"
