It is troublesome but I feel like the problem is intractable.
For personal use, but corporations trying to profit off of it could be fined 100% of their assets if need be.
Proving it happening is going to be difficult..more difficult than telling Vanilla Ice from Queen/Bowie.
There is currently no way to copyright a voice. There is also no good definition of what a voice even is legally.
It has always been happening to some degree. Casters would cast someone who sound like that other person etc. Happens to music all the time. Tv shows have cover music that is soo close to the song it's supposed to remind the viewer of but just isn't technically. Voices are going to much more difficult, especially with AI spitting out audio of what it would have sounded like if a certain person had said it, but didn't. It'll be impossible.
This will be the death of voice acting.
