So, the multi-speaker neural TTS models have gotten eerily good; the few-sample/voice-cloning NNs are also now credible with a few minutes of samples. Has anyone told the various media fandoms they could get their favorite characters' voices on tap with some elbow-grease...?

Checking, voices can't be copyrighted... but voice cloning used in conjunction with art/names/music violates copyrights. More confusing is if just the voice with serial numbers filed off is a violation of privacy/'publicity rights' - many voices sound nothing like the voice actor

Yeah. There are also potentially issues (or at least rightsholders would probably assert issues) with trade dress, obstruction of business, etc etc.
