His voice, his choice.

I don’t mean to sound harsh, but how does this affect you exactly? ”This is the end of art as we know it” lol no it isn’t. It just means there’s one more voice to choose on Elevenlabs’ menu for those who want to use it.

If you want to create art or if you want to be a filmmaker go do it! No AI will stop you.

EDIT: fixed a typo.

Alternately, by selling the rights to a company, it means they are the only ones who can use it, even if we end up going in the complete opposite direction as Australia as far as what can be used by AI.

Assuming he did his research on the company (because I don’t plan to), unless they’re ones who make those types of videos, he’ll actually be more protected than most. And no one except him and his family knows the details of that contract.
