Allegedly, VAs were paid to license away their voices, so the majority of what you hear is AI based on said voices, with a few "original" lines for high-stakes content. Here's an in-depth piece from @aiandgames.com : www.aiandgames.com/p/arc-raider...

Bien sûr, il est possible d'intégrer des moteurs de traduction auto (DeepL, Google Translate, etc.) à un TAO type MemoQ/Trados/Phrase, mais ce n'est pas une fonction utilisée par l'ensemble des traducteurs et traductrices.

Petite précision, la TAO n'a aucun rapport avec la traduction automatique - ce n'est ni plus ni moins qu'une interface (comme Word, Excel, etc.) pour stocker les glossaires et les mémoires de traduction créés "à la main" :)

Gotta say, I love your website's design! It's so easy on the eyes, which really helps with long-form content. Keep it up!

Sort of related, but every time an English text translated from Japanese uses ※ or 「」, a FIGS+ translator dies. Please, think of the FIGS+ translators 🙏

I just love how adding a non-breaking space makes it not recognize numbers anymore, industry standard software btw

That is so nice of you to say, Jeremy! 🙏 There's still a long way to go, but one step at a time, right?

Love how they allow you to write someone's biography (presumably without their consent) and feed it to the slop machine, I should consider doing that for my mortal enemies

If we're talking gameloc, I would recommend joining TL communities on Discord! HonYaks in particular has a lot of J-E peeps. You can find a more or less complete list here: locdandloaded.net/2022/01/28/t...

Due to the isolating nature of translation work, it can sometimes be difficult to find colleagues to talk to, especially in a post-pandemic, AI-riddled world where real human interaction becomes rarer...

Une honte absolue. Ces gens ne te méritent pas. Tout plein de soutien 🫂

And remember, this doesn't stop with voice actors. We've seen it all across the industry, if companies can chew and spit you out once they've siphoned all your work, they will.
