Marketing this as “text-to-speech” is oversimplyfying at best, dishonest at worst imho. People need to work, we can’t blame the voice actors. But in the end they still are working against themselves/their peers.

it is literally a text-to-speech system. saying otherwise is just ignorant.

  TTS has existed for decades, machine learning for less than 20 years, genAI as we know it for less than 5.
  
  Those 3 things are not the same thing. Yes the genAI they used can be included as a TTS because it is one. But only in function.
  
  You are playing on words here. Most people know TTS as a crappy old thing, here this is something way more advanced.
  
  Even if it was the same thing to begin with. I wouldn’t be like a company using a simple TTS capable of recreating the voice of a voice actor I like without paying them the same as if the company hired them.

    you don’t have to like it. just don’t misrepresent what’s going on because you don’t have a good argument against it. it’s not your opinion that’s getting all your comments downvoted, it’s the lying and moralizing.
