I think the key here is you're using it for yourself only.

I think it comes down more to understanding what the tech is potentially good at, and executing it in an ethical way. My personal use is one thing; but Speechify made an entire business out of it, and people aren't calling for them to be burned to the ground.

As opposed to Google's take of "OMG AI! RUB IT INTO EVERYONE'S NOSE, THEY'RE GONNA LOVE IT!" and just slapping it onto the internet, and then pretending to be surprised when people ask for a pizza recipe and it tells them to add Elmer's Glue to it...

Two controlled inputs giving a predictable output; vs just letting it browse 4chan and see what happens. The tech industry definitely seems to lean toward the later, which is fucking tragic, but there are gems scattered throughout the otherwise pure pile of shit that LLMs are at the moment.

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.
