That's an insult to Charles' talent. The man is a professional voice actor and his sense can't be replaced by AI. Replicated maybe, but not replaced.
I think the thing AI can't do is inspired delivery of lines. Mario doesn't say much, but the way it is said is very important. I think it would be easier to replace most characters in Final Fantasy games with AI than it would Mario.
