The number one thing that people should take from this is that Hoyo is willing to replace striking actors
If you believe they’re willing to do that, you shouldn’t have much trouble accepting that they’ll replace working actors with AI.

Last week, two voice actors for Hoyoverse game Zenless Zone Zero were recast because they were withholding work due to the SAG-AFTRA Interactive strike.
In these videos, we discuss what happened, why the actors chose to withhold work, and what all this has to do with the threat of AI.

In clinical trials of new treatments, when the treatment is clearly and obviously immediately effective it is sometimes considered unethical to continue to withhold it from the control group. Pretty sure we passed that milestone about a decade ago with basic income experiments.
Fresh basic income pilot results, this time from Arlington, Virginia where 200 people got $500 a month for 2 years. The findings:
Employment INCREASED by 16%, and their incomes from paid work INCREASED by 37%. The control group saw no such gains.

Many folks have complained about poor subtitles on Good Omens S2.
@neilhimself.neilgaiman.com explains: for S1 he reviewed & corrected subtitles himself. He didn’t do that for S2. Because he’s on strike.
When writers say their work doesn’t end when the script is turned in…this is what that means.
