They generated the voice actors voices without their consent? That’s fucked, they paid for the lines, not their likenesses
AI voices are gonna be great for media.
AI clones of actual people are the dumbest thing you could possibly do with them.
I don’t even know if I agree with that tbh - I’ve yet to see anything that actually shows that AI voiceovers can replace human ones. Oh they can make realistic speech, but they can’t voice act. A voice actor isn’t just a person who reads a script in a monotone, they’re an actor.
AI will probably eventually get good enough to understand the context of the dialogue and add the appropriate inflections and such - but nothing today comes even close
What actors play these characters onscreen?
That’s what this technology will change. If you picture ‘insert script, receive audio,’ then yeah, it’ll suck. But if you see it as a tool - it’s going to let artists create a performance, without a performer. It’s an instrument they can guide and tweak and endlessly fiddle with.
Or more directly, it’ll let someone say a line like they want it to sound, and then transfer that to someone else’s voice. And it doesn’t need to be someone real.
This is a fighting game?
