I rephrased my comment probably right before you posted this because I felt it was too confrontational.
The problem of people manufacturing evidence by using synthesized voices should eventually result in audio voice recordings losing importance from an evidentiary standpoint. In fact, the quicker the use of it occurs, the quicker it will get devalued. And that is good. Someday soon, someone who sounds like the CEO won't be able to drain the company bank account based solely on trusting his voice. And hopefully, along the same lines, a voice recording of Person X blaspheming will lose its evidential power since it will be so easy to manufacture.
