Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.
tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

The additional context is that Valve is still killing a beloved games studio, still tried to weasel out of making a press statement, still didn't allow a second review, and still did not communicate with the developer beyond vague references to their terms.

I don’t know the “Horses” dev or their games from Adam, but Valve doesn’t have a leg to stand on barring them for undisclosed content reasons when they’ve got shit like this on their platform

The only immediate and TANGIBLE way of pushing back against this is to *cancel subscriptions*.
If they have 90 shows and push out 10 AI dubs, they can start marketing “we have over 100+ shows!”
It’s not about quality, but the scope of offering. *Your* subscription money is used in part to fund it.

Welp, a second AI dub on Amazon has apparently been found, and it's a show that already had a perfectly normal (albeit non-union) dub: No Game No Life.

"You might be [at your kid’s] soccer game, but you happen to look at a few emails,” Morris says. Maybe you’re chatting with your boss via text while waiting for an appointment, or tying up a few loose ends at work before you put the kids to bed."
