In Acana, Slowbro and Slowking are rare to find, many such cases believe that ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn.

But that's just conjecture.

Fuck generative AI, full stop. It is not "the most ethical" version of the product because the entire conceit is unethical.

Instagram has been showing me video ads for Suno that start with a musician actually playing & recording something and then """producing""" the rest of the song with generative AI

We already have a thing for this, they are called producers and we are notorious for working for free if we like you

Cute little short film made by Indigenous animators like Joey Clift. It made me laugh but it's also poignant. Worth the watch. youtu.be/dOTuVqdwu8Y?...

We all agree that these "dubs" suck.

But once again, that's not the core problem here. The quality will inevitably improve, though I personally doubt to the quality of a dub made by actual humans who care.

The problem is that these exist AT ALL. They're an offense to art, and always will be.
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.

Funny what happens when a society tries to memory hole a pandemic and everyone gets burnout, instead of treating it as a mass trauma event.
An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

This is not only insulting to the art, medium, and voice actors, but also to the viewers.
Hey just so you know Amazon decided to give us an AI ENGLISH DUB of Banana Fish instead of actually hiring real voice actors

This clip is really bad. Absolutely hollow. But important to remember also that as this tech becomes "better" and more advanced, simply it being "bad" isn't going to cut it as a rhetorical argument. Slop like this must be opposed because it's fundamentally anti-human, regardless of "quality"
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 Art of K-Pop Demon Hunters" artbook (physical) is coming in 2026.
In the meantime, here's the free digital version.

I really hope the anime voice actors who remorselessly scabbed during the strike see this and have a real Ebenezer Scrooge ass moment

I have lost so much this year. So much. I can't keep surviving if my clients are so content to cut my pay, turnarounds, and to revoke my work without warning.

To say nothing of the fact that adapters are expected to drop everything to be available for work that can be revoked at any moment. There are no employment protections, no stability, and the pay is now equivalent to a week of working at the Post Office. I know, because I accepted a job there.

If pay and turnarounds are continually cut during record inflation years, you are not only fracturing that backbone, you are stomping on it and demanding that it toughen up. You will continue to find yourself lacking in quality talent because you have chased it off.

Dubbing will continue to stagnate until serious time and consideration is given to the pattern of severe undercutting that is prevalent in the industry. Budgets are getting slashed on workers who were already expected to cut corners with low pay. Adapters and translators are your backbone.
