I feel like if you're already such a big celebrity that people could legitimately make money from your voice then you're already set for life. That is, I would happily trade not being rich and famous, to being rich and famous enough for people to want to clone my voice.

Now on the other hand, if you're a nobody and nobody cares about your voice, you've got other things to worry about, like earning a salary and paying for your kids college.

So let's just let companies do what they want as long as you're making a salary and can pay for college?

what if it's not about money ?

Then he's a fortunate man that he can focus on concerns like this I think and probably doesn't realize how lucky he is. People are dying all over the world due to climate change, natural disasters and war. We have boats full of migrants sinking and killing hundreds of children in the British channel, trucks full of dead people who died over overheating trying to move to a better life.

My point is, there are major issues happening in the world that could lead to war, mass migration, and societal collapse. Worrying about your voice being cloned is a luxury and IMO, not a priority honestly.

It's a bit ridiculous to bring these issues in such a discussion.
