I get being upset about it being used for porn, but I hope this doesn’t result in modders being banned from creating characters with AI voices. Imagine the story mods people could make without having to spend the big bucks on voice actors. Just type the script in and let the computer go to town.
The issue really shouldn’t be about the porn aspect of it, it’s the fact that voice actors are basically having their likeness used without their consent, which for an average person is creepy and not cool but for them that likeness is also their means of income. AI is an awesome tool, but using it to mimic specific people without their consent is not okay.
