Well if their voice won't draw in buyers, than its a bad investment since you could just use some generic free version a bunch of non-voice actors were paid to make by the company they work for.

If money is to be made it won't be the VAs capturing it is all I'm saying. They might even have no room in the market at all.

non-voice actors were paid

I feel like being paid for it would kinda make them a VA, but sure.

And if the quality of AI voice were that bad, it would be worthless anyway and noone would create/use packages for it.

Okay my company tells me today I need to start recording my emails verbally. They own that and sell it to game companies.

Am I a voice actor?

No its a side hustle for the company of sorts. What do you call that? A bi-product?
