the audio dataset this was trained on, VoxCeleb2, was stolen and copied from the Youtubers' videos by researchers in 2018, without their consent or knowledge.

@tehstu "THIS IS SO COOL, LOOK, WE KNOW HOW TO DEEPFAKE PEOPLE USING JUST A PHOTO AND A SNIPPET OF AUDIO!" "Hey, guys, this is going to result in widespread abuse of people's images, phishing and scams, and throw lots of people out of work" "YEAH, BUT IT'S SO COOL! LOOK AT WHAT WE CAN DO!"
