Why would I want a fictional character to sound like a specific real person?

Or, framing the question differently: what actor plays Dave The Diver onscreen? Because the answer is what this technology will do for audio.

There are cool use cases for this such as having NPCs say player-picked names for their character (instead of saying a generic name/title like in current RPGs). I don’t know if it’s worth it though.

Again: why would the NPC saying that need to sound like a specific real person?

To make it sound like the rest of the character’s dialogue. They’re probably not going to train this on the VA’s “normal” voice, that sounds useless.
