    I completely agree, but why would there be a skill-component to the ethicalness of impersonation? Is it equally unethical if a person used a voice-changer? It requires the same amount of skill as the AI.

      I haven’t heard of voice-changers that can replicate other people’s voices that aren’t made with machine learning.

      The issue is impersonation. An AI voice generator that does not imitate anyone in specific and has a “unique” voice, I have no issue with that.

      And obviously, a human voice imitator that uses it for impersonating others is also an issue. But that’s far less common and accessible than a computer powered option.
