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.

A good reminder of where I stand on this: I DGAF how technically good you are at traditional painting. If you use genai in ANY part of your process, you have abandoned the soul of art, abandoned the artist community and forfeit any reason I should give you an ounce of respect.

This too more effort than I expected, who knew the big challenge would be getting the PC to beep at power up? (Pull RAM, trigger an error on post did the trick.) I now have a 20+ minute ambient computer sounds recording that had better not get content ID matched.

Youtube, when I say it's ambient hard drive noises, I'm not kidding. Behold the Jank Ambient Computer Sound Generator. 90's era Cheming case in proper gaming green, Intel Atom micro ATX mobo, PATA HD and a 19" CRT to get that proper hum, all directed by an IBM Model F keyboard.

Bah, Youtube content ID matched the sound of a harddrive spinning up for 11 seconds in my VRRP standby scene to a random electronica song. First appeal got robo rejected. The audio in no way matches, but the next step involves lawyers, and a $1500 retainer so... bah.

Sure, day before the big season four kickoff after I've validated my full streaming stack my brain goes: "Hey, wanna try and make a set of custom stinger transitions from scratch?"
Guess I'm trying to remember JS animation techniques tonight to shut my brain up.
