I immediately copy/pasted in some smut to check if it was going to lecture me on my moral failings and was pleasantly shocked to find a corporate AI model that did what I asked without pushing puritanical nonsense one me.

There are plenty of businesses that assign integrity a non-zero value, because most businesses reflect people. Maybe you're in a bubble devoid of that kind of thinking, so it seems very foreign or quaint. Even then it's short-sighted thinking at best: the "market rate" is not some magic self-optimizing number. Underpaying their creators is just creating the opportunity for someone to take the best of them on better t…
I don’t disagree that overpaying can be a good strategy, but I question whether it has any bearing on integrity. I hire someone to paint a fence. We agree on $200 for the job and I pay them $200. We both know that it’s undifferentiated work and I could find a dozen other people who would do it for $200. Where’s the lack of integrity? Or does it just appear if I know that I actually could afford to pay them $10,000, b…
You're building fence painting robot and need someone to teach it how to paint fences by example.
You decide you won't pay the fence painters to teach the robot upfront.
Instead, painters will pay you $20 to even visit the factory.
Then, if a particular painter's fence painting is especially highly rated, you'll pay them a small royalty.
So you send your fence painting robot to compete with fence painters for $20 a fence, passing on a tiny slice of the $20 to the ones who helped teach it.

We can consider the creation of fence robot and the competition with the existing market just another piece of the steady march of progress, but there's still obvious room to act with more integrity in this situation.
There was no established rate for what fair wages to teach the robot to paint were, and you can't pay $200 because you don't charge $200... but it's also probably not "-$22/month + 1% royalties".

Oh! I'll look into that, thanks.
I did exactly this for my finnish anki flashcards. you can see the implementation here: https://github.com/w3p706/anki-gen-fin/blob/main/ankigenfin/... If you are looking to convert very short texts or words into speach, I had best result with eleven_multilingual_v2 with the following text for tts "Hän sanoo rauhallisesti ja hitaasti: '${text}'" An then i use a postprocessing to split at the silence.
