Got tired of writing 100-char-long variables in java during my 9-5, so I decided to relax with js and created a website where you can clone voices and make them say any text.
As someone with aspirations of voice acting, and who generally believes in consent for usage of voices, stuff like this raises my hackles. I know the cat is out of the bag and there’s legal stuff happening right now around this, but I don’t like seeing more of them pop up. I know you’re doing this for fun and to relax, so I don’t want to be a jerk and assume bad faith or anything, but wanted to be honest about my opinions around this tech.
