To be fair, they’ve got pretty serious potential for letting tech companies get paid for a seasoned voice actor’s unique delivery, tone, inflection, etc rather than the voice actor themselves.
I'm absolutely using celebrity voices for my Home Assistant voice. Amazon has spent the last couple years removing the voices for Alexa that people had paid for.
Gen AI space to everyone else: “Your computer scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they should, they didn’t stop to think if they could just do it anyway”
Indeed. Humans ascended to dominance because we can cooperate. This every-man-for-themself idea is an aberration, not the natural order as so many claim. It’s rather astounding to think otherwise considering the logistics of how we’re communicating right now.
Cooperation works if the potential damage caused by a rouge actor is sufficiently low. Otherwise, it's too easy to sabotage things. This is why we don't want random rouge states to have nukes. AI will give so much leverage to rouge actors that it will significantly shift the game theory in favour of not cooperating.
Demanding responsible behaviour from everybody is not going to work. Some people don't care about negative externalities that much and it's enough if only a few of them decide not to play ball. So either grandma needs to adapt which will upset some people or distributing the tech should be regulated/prosecuted which will upset another group of people.

It's not any worse than all the projects on github with an "easy" install instructions of "curl ... | sudo sh". Heck, even an innocent "sudo make install" command can easily contain a malicious payload.
Yeah it’s not great but it’s definitely not unusual. And windows reputation-based execution blocking does have false positives. I work for a company that has some very very popular products and some that only see a few dozen downloads per week, and despite being signed, it still takes a while for new versions to build enough rep to not trigger the block.
