Voice cloning programs — most of which are free- have flimsy barriers to prevent nonconsensual impersonations, a new report finds.
Sound-alikes have been around for as long as there has been voice actors.
John Kricfalusi did the voice for Ren during the first season of Ren & Stimpy, got fired, and then Billy West took over the job. Nobody noticed the change. Did John consent to the change? No, of course not.
This shit happens all the time with music and singers. It’s just that now the availability has increased.
