I'd 100% expect game studios to move to pure AI voices as soon as it's feasible to do so. There are even very strong use cases for it, like using it to voice generated dialogue so that NPCs don't need to be scripted word-for-word.

The entire genre of Internet video, too, is likely to do it, albeit because of cost.

Movies and TV may keep using voice actors if it's the prestigious thing to do. Who knows. The point about directing the actor is also good, but I don't know how long it would last.
