> what's wrong with asking another one?

It's illegal, you can't hire an impersonator and allude to it being the real deal. That's the issue.

> Is it scummy to hire "discount" Matt Damon instead of Matt Damon?

If you imply you've hired Matt Damon by tweeting something about Matt Damon and your "discount" had a profession as a Matt Damon impersonator, yes. Yes 100%.

This is illegal with or without AI. We've literally had these laws longer than the tech.
