That’s also the business model behind ad localization now, they’ll pay the actor once for appearing on set and then pay them royalties to keep AI editing the commercial to feature different products in different countries.
If they’re up front about it and if the actor agrees to it (as with Speechify), I don’t see a problem with that. SAG should also be involved to try and determine fair compensation.

Speechify also pays the people who’s voices they’re using rather than taking them from publicly available videos and recordings without permission.

Wait that’s genius. I would listen to Snoop Dogg teaching me particle physics any day of the week.
I think the key here is you’re using it for yourself only.

In my opinion using someone’s voice without their consent in a public way is unethical, but you doing it in private doesn’t hurt anyone.
Say that again, but think of a a fat old white dude jerking off to what he’s created, and you’ll figure out several ways it could hurt someone.
