Cloning voices is dumb. Voice-to-voice transformers should let studios invent what any character sounds like, and then focus on the performance instead.

You still wind up with Steve Blum, Gianni Matragano, Nolan North, and whoever's in Bethesda that week doing eight voices per game per month. But they'll actually sound like eight different characters. Even if some of them are coming back to fill in for one another's characters.
