Paid a Colombian tea grower $1,500 for a shipment. Got billed $150 by the Trump administration at the border. *I* got billed. Not the tea growers. Not the Colombian government. Me. The American business owner. I paid the Trump tax.

The thing that strikes me about replacing voice actors with AI slop is that, in the scope of a big AA/AAA production it barely saves money? These people aren't even full time. It's immizerating people because immizerating people is your goal, nothing more.

Geoff Keighley really is the perfect representative of the gaming industry:
-unreservedly self serving
-pretends to care about the people actually making the product
-loves to make performative gestures that ultimately go nowhere and help no one
-would almost certainly sell out to the saudis

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.

Considering there is a detailed YouTube tutorial on how to correctly do every single task on earth, you would think we would be living in a golden age of human competence. However I am starting to worry that this is not the case

I've worked enough retail to know this is just about whipping obedience into employees and has little to do with the actual shopping experience. Only the Karens care if you're smiling.
Keep boycotting Target.
Keep boycotting Target.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

People think AI is saving them all this time, but they are not considering what doing so costs them.
Independent critical thinking skills are already seemingly at an all-time low, and it feels like we’re just going to keep hitting new lows over and over again.

Microsoft is a crater of filth ruled by cruel imbeciles who don’t understand basic facts about the industries they hungrily exploit.
Its executives are *deeply* stupid people who mistake their predatory ruthlessness for savvy. If they all melted in hot slag tomorrow, the world wouldn’t be worse.
