    That’s fine. I’m not arguing this is a bad thing, I’m just being pedantic about the word theft.

    Having your voice used to say things you didn’t say is a terrifying prospect. Combined with deep faking takes it one step further.

    But is it technically theft?

      Oh you’re saying it might be illegal, but technically not prosecuted under theft.

        Wow the court obviously got this one wrong. Imitation is in no way stealing someone’s voice.

          Not to mention with billions of people walking around is anyone’s voice really unique? I have met hundreds of people in my life who sound so much alike it is hard to distinguish them.
