Exactly. Before LLMs, this used to be something only rich people or corporations could do. Now, anybody can do it.
this is one reason why my wife answers phone calls with hola in as much as a mexican accent as she can muster.
Sound-alikes have been around for as long as there has been voice actors.
John Kricfalusi did the voice for Ren during the first season of Ren & Stimpy, got fired, and then Billy West took over the job. Nobody noticed the change. Did John consent to the change? No, of course not.
This shit happens all the time with music and singers. It's just that now the availability has increased.
I'm reading the tone of this comment as saying, "who cares? It was already happening." Which is weird to me.
Because AI and LLMs especially have become the new bogeyman to blame what amounts to technological shifts that society has not adapt to. All AI has done has made technology more accessible and available to the common man.
AI is great and good and nothing it does wrong can compromise the future that you absolutely will fucking submit to.
