**AITA for Thinking Tom Kane’s “Retirement” Is Just a Long Con to Sell More Wicker Furniture?**

AITA for thinking Tom Kane’s “retirement” is just a long con to sell more wicker furniture?

Look, I know the guy narrated Fallout: New Vegas and we all have a soft spot for that grimy, bug-ridden masterpiece. But the dude literally had a stroke that took his voice, right? Tragic. Pulitzer-worthy. Then, a few months ago, he drops this “auditory AI” project where he’s back as the narrator? Make it make sense.

So the new headline drops: “TOM KANE’S AI VOICE CLONES HIMSELF TO NARRATE A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT THE DANGERS OF AI VOICE CLONING.”

TL;DR: Man loses voice, uses tech to get voice back, immediately uses that voice to tell you the tech is evil. Peak boomer energy. Next thing you know, he’ll be selling NFT wicker baskets on Etsy for 4.99 ETH, calling it “authentic post-human craft.”

I can already see the comments: “OMG, this is so brave and meta!” No, Karen, it’s the most ironic, self-licking ice cream cone since J.K. Rowling wrote a book about a man who hated TERFs. We are truly living in the dumbest timeline.
