For people unaware and playing/streaming Where Winds Meet, it uses GenAI for NPC chat bots, and let's you import a photo of yourself and a voice clip for character creation, which I'm sure I don't need to explain why that is fucked up
And no AI disclosure on Steam 🙃

The thing about CrunchyRoll’s enshittification is that normally I’m a big proponent of supporting official channels but if the money from subscriptions isn’t being used to pay talent and labour and the quality suffers as a result, then morally what’s the purpose of supporting those official means?

We got gen-AI dubs from Amazon and gen-AI subs from Crunchyroll, but if you torrent a fansub that real people worked to translate, code, and stylize, you're the piece of shit.

Holy. SHIT. Like........ WOW... It's so much worse than you'd think. Like, before I hit play, I figured it would just be kind of awkward but... wow...

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

No. The Thing is a movie about a bunch of people who all distrust and hate each other trapped in one building as the tension between them slowly builds until it reaches a breaking point. It's a Thanksgiving movie.
Should John Carpenter's THE THING be officially classified as a Christmas movie? Let your voice be heard!

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Pathetic, unbelievably pathetic… there’s plenty of folks who would have killed to work on a dub of this show and they give us this festering slop…
Hey just so you know Amazon decided to give us an AI ENGLISH DUB of Banana Fish instead of actually hiring real voice actors

I find it interesting that they are doing this to a show about a queer csa victim
It feels intentional since they can use the excuse of "well it's too taboo of content to get anyone to dub it normally."

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway.

Fuck STRANGER THINGS (on Netflix)
Noah Schnapp (plays Will Beyers) is a Zionist, racist, and genocide supporter.
He’s made horrible comments and been allowed to keep his job whilst they fired Susan Surandon and Melissa Berrara for speaking up for Palestine.

A problem with the 'if you're a good artist, AI won't replace you' is that you aren't born a good artist. You learn. If entry level art jobs are taken over, then the only way to practice, learn and improve and still pay your bills is outside of a proffessional environment. Which means either... 1/2
