Why do you think that? It sounds like it's a feature that a Podcaster can choose to use if they want to. It doesn't sound like they are just going to do it to every podcast without permission.

Honestly, as dumb as the AI hype can be, I see this as an actual good use of the tech, but I could be wrong.

Sure, as long as everyone gets paid!

Well they get more people listen to their podcast, more advertising.

Yes exactly, as long as that adds up to the same compensation percentage the original voice actor signed up for then I don't see an issue with this.

I'm almost 100% sure that won't be the case without a fight
