Home Assistant is making huge progress in creating an open source version of Alexa, Siri, etc. You can train it to use your voice, but the obvious use is celebrity voices for your home. Alexa had them, then took them away, and refused to refund people.

Beside the fact that it seems more like a "entertainment" use case rather than "functional", is it really ethical to use someone's voice without asking/having rights to use it?
Small concern, granted, but parent seems to have specifically asked for ethical use cases.
I believe that a number of celebrities (I think Tom Hanks is one) have already sued companies for using deepfakes of their voices. Of course, the next year (in the US) is gonna see a lot of stuff generated by AI.
