AI manipulation of Assassin's Creed character's voice stokes actors' concerns (www.axios.com)

Video game voice actors are fearing that the ability for generative AI to replicate their voices may cost them work and, more fundamentally, control of their own voice.

Doesn't apply to this case. This wasn't in a commercial product but a fanmade Skyrim mod.

Apart from that, I fully agree. AI is an amazing tool for prototypes and hobby projects that wouldn't be made at all without it (because honestly, nobody hires artists and voice actors for something only their friends will ever see). Making all AI-generated content public domain seems like a good compromise. Scientists and companies still have an incentive to improve the technology because people still have use cases where it doesn't matter if someone copies what they generate, hobbyists can play around as much as they want and professionals have another tool in their toolbox to speed up prototyping before they start work on the actual handmade product.
