Imagine losing your bank account and all the money in it because you sold mommy dom audio online.

This is fucking terrifying. Just straight up evil. Whatever legal funds need to be had for this, I will donate and spread it around as much as possible. This needs more attention.
Spoke to a second source familiar with what’s going on with paypro censorship toward me. It seems I’ve been blacklisted among paypros as a creator, particularly for mommy domme content. This could escalate into debanking, I learned

This is retaliation plain and simple. Ana helped sound the alarm about the payment processors using their platforms to enact mass censorship, and now they are using the full might of their influence to make an example out of her.

This is extremely bad.

Ana has been targeted and blacklistef by paypros for her fight against online censorship of nsfw content.

An attack on one trans person is an attack on ALL OF US. Not just trans people, but EVERYONE!

Debanking destroys lives. If paypros can do this to her, they’ll do it to you too for protesting.

Even on projects that don’t feature AI, it’s often difficult to justify how little voice actors get paid for work on projects that sell in the millions

So it’s fascinating to see folks say “they were compensated fairly” repeatedly on this occasion where we don’t even have the voice actors credited.
The argument I'm hearing about it is "the voice actors got paid for it so it's all good"

We don't know how much they got paid, or if they get royalties every time those lines get used.

It's a slippery slope being brushed off because "game good"

if Arc Raiders had plagiarized art, would it matter?

love the implication here that this middle ground was taken away by spicy online anti-genAI hot takes, as opposed to the trillion dollar investment bubble, omnipresent industrial takeover, operating system undermining, mass layoffs, leveraged data center construction, + ensuing environmental impacts
"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.

This is quite interesting because I don't remember gaming companies ever doing this before. When we rejected 32X, Sega didn't put out a statement like "I think you're all being silly. Come on. Please?"

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.

“They gave consent, it’s legal use of AI voice over”

I don’t care about legality and neither do you. You want to play your game and enjoy it guilt free.

I want human beings to be able to work in the industry they trained half their lives for.

It’s a moral issue. It’s a human issue.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have launched a massive, nationwide strike.

Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.

Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.

Mako voiced Iroh in Avatar The Last Airbender and Aku in Samurai Jack. He passed away in 2006 and Greg Bladwin took over those roles for ATLA's 3rd & final season, The Legend of Korra, and Samurai Jack's revival.

Fuck digital necromancy. Fuck AI replacing real talent. Fuck anyone who argues for it.
Saw someone arguing about the AI voices situation and their point in defense of using AI was “there’s a new Max Payne remake coming out, the main voice actor died, how else are they supposed to give him a voice?”

It is absurd to me that this is even considered a “good point” from either side.

(curious, do we know what the *terms* were for actors who did AI licenses for arc raiders? “They agreed to it” - to what?

Core to our negotiation: some stuff you should not be pressured to agree to, you deserve certain info beforehand, & have union enforcement if violated.

I wish them the same.)

Heads up for folx playing Arc Raiders: Embark has openly stated (in an interview with GamesRadar+), that the game uses the same AI voice tech as The Finals, and the CEO has talked about using AI to generate 3D models from YouTube rips.

If you're anti-AI you should not be playing Arc Raiders!
Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.

They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

Players of the beta for upcoming Hoyo title Petit Planet have noticed there’s an AI chatbot featured and at least one barista NPC whose dialogue is generated by AI

Fans of their titles are defending it saying “this is a good use of AI” and “you can’t stop AI at this point.”

Not text to speech. It is specifically describing a fully produced and performed audiobook with a cast of characters and sound effects etc.

Things actors and engineers get hired to do.

They’ve proven they can do it for fifty fucking dollars.

And Boson AI gave them a winning spot for this.

In case you’re curious what kind of uses for AI they were promoting at this HoYoverse sponsored event, here’s what one of the winners created with it:

“a cost-effective pipeline that produces audiobook content for under $50 per chapter, compared to $10K-$20K+ for traditional full-cast productions.”

HoYoverse participated in the recent BosonAI hackathon event this past week.

BosonAI promotes themselves as “Making communication with Al as easy, natural and fun as talking to a human.” and highlights “Audio Generation. Rich emotional voice synthesis.”

Highlighting because of the audio aspect.
