Execs are trying to muddy the waters around Gen-AI as a ‘push against all AI’ because they hear the unified dissent and they want to crush it via division. Don’t let them. Say it louder. Every time you see a statement like this, push back harder. Let them know you see them exactly for who they are.
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

“Our talented team with its own human hands and brains and souls decided that all this shitty art made by a computer was good enough to go in our game” is not a good defense of using AI tools to generate assets.

I say this with empathy toward every struggling actor who is just trying to make due:
Providing your voice for A.I. undermines everyone in the industry. It is a net negative, that will only make it harder for you and everyone else down the line.
It. Is. Wrong.

“But in ARC Raiders the GenAi voices were officially sanctioned by the actors! And so did Fortnite!” - and their agreement to this undermines everything the rest of us Voice Actors, our union, and other industries have been fighting against.

Ask literally any voice actor if they get royalties from the video games they worked on.
They will tell you no. They might even laugh.
Now imagine any developer actively trying to use AI VO to save money wanting to offer something like that.

Now imagine any developer actively trying to use AI VO to save money wanting to offer something like that.
Also, re: "they get royalties", how much money is that? Does it make up for the lack of continued work?
Paying next to nothing is still "getting paid royalties" but is functionally nothing.

"This use of GenAI is fine because VAs signed contracts to relinquish their rights".
Well yeah, have you seen what happens to those who don't want to sign off on this? Can you really call that consent when the alternative is losing (or never getting) a job?
