Knowing people like him, he would probably take the obvious literary warnings from a book like that and use them as inspiration for how to build an even more dystopian nightmare.
Which this very story proves. The AI voice that they generated was specifically based on "Her", a movie about a guy who falls in love with an AI voice assistant. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm going out on a limb to guess this is another "don't make the torment vortex" situation.
The movie is actually pretty non-dystopian and kind of sweet. It's basically a romcom, just one with a very creative premise.
