You’re also not causing da Vinci to potentially miss out on jobs by copying it. You’re also not taking away his ability to say no to something he doesn’t want to be associated with.
That's fine. I'm not arguing this is a bad thing, I'm just being pedantic about the word theft.
Having your voice used to say things you didn't say is a terrifying prospect. Combined with deep faking takes it one step further.
But is it technically theft?
Yes, actually. In the same way as copyright infringement or identity theft could be considered so.

Wow the court obviously got this one wrong. Imitation is in no way stealing someone's voice.
Not to mention with billions of people walking around is anyone's voice really unique? I have met hundreds of people in my life who sound so much alike it is hard to distinguish them.
Your link didn't say anything about theft...
