    It would help with accessibility, and it might help protect some lesser spoken languages because those people can grow an audience as well.

    The tech will develop regardless and people will abuse it for other means, at least this one feels like a positive use as opposed to say, a company making its own podcast series with a stolen voice.

    If the creator can choose to generate other languages for their own voice, that’s probably fine?
