The ability to use my own voice in other languages so I can do localization on my own youtube videos would be huge.

With game development as well, being able to be my own voice actor would save me an immense amount of money that I do not have and give me even more creative freedom and direction of exactly what I want.

It's not ready yet, but I do believe that it will come.

People are already doing this and it was hugely controversial in The Finals

There's a bit thing atm around human creative work being replaced by AI; even if a voice isn't cloned but just generated by AI it gets people frothing as if human hands in factories haven't been replaced by robots, or a human rider on horseback wasn't replaced by an engine.

I feel like the main reason, though, was that they could easily afford real voice actors.

[itsTyrion]

that's... exactly what they did. They hired real VAs that recorded some lines that are used as-is in the game, and stuff for training, which is to make more dynamic commentary about the match. It was a controversy because people saw "AI" and lost their marbles. Nothing wrong if it's contracted/licensed training data.

Ability to do it realtime in video games in general seems huge.
