  You’re also not causing da Vinci to potentially miss out on jobs by copying it. You’re also not taking away his ability to say no to something he doesn’t want to be associated with.

    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.

      Yes, actually. In the same way as copyright infringement could be considered so.

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

        Your link didn’t say anything about theft…

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

  The idea obviously doesn't apply to the public domain.
