Is voice cloning of fictional characters or people allowed when the use is not for profit?

    How was the voice of this ‘fictional’ character made? If I record the voice of Geralt of Rivera and made a porno using his voice as a cover track, id still be recording a VAs work, then id argue about the ethicality of the action. If fully synthesized, e.g. Siri, why not just synthesize the voice yourself?

      Siri was originally based off real VAs, I’m unaware if they’ve moved away from that since
