I mean humans can do and have been doing this exact thing forever. Computers make it faster and easier, just like everything else. This isn’t AI, this is training a speech model using machine learning techniques.
A few humans imitating other humans is not even comparable to the scale that computers imitating humans can reach though.
True. I think the main difference is that a computer has no moral compass and won’t remember the large scale criminal operation it was a part of. I don’t think it’s worthwhile to fear or regulate this kind of ml application, the cat is out of the bag and the best we can do is implement security controls like passwords with our important relationships.
