I just found out that Embark used genAI to replace recalling it’s voice actors. And I am devastated. It was my GOTY and now I’m boycotting it. To the point that I decided to be vocal about it.

I don’t want any AI (not talking about machine learning for the way the Arcs move, I’m talking about the voice actors being replaced) in the work of art that I think are the video games I play.

To game developers: Stop using AI in your video games!


Je viens de découvrir que Embark a utilisé de l’IA générative pour remplacer ses acteurs. Et franchement je suis tellement déçu. C’était clairement mon GOTY, et maintenant je me retrouve à boycotter tout ça, au point de carrément en faire des posts pour toucher le plus de monde possible.

Je ne veux aucune IA (et attention, je ne parle pas du machine learning utilisé pour les déplacements des Arcs) dans les oeuvres d’art que je consomme.

Aux développeurs: Arrêtez d’utiliser de l’IA dans les jeux vidéos !

    your point of view is abusive to the people who took this job, so no, I don’t care about it. furthermore, it’s important that I call out people who act like you are, because the way you’re acting is absolutely incompatible with my anarchist lifestyle, where an individuals right to self-determination is sacrosanct. I’m focused on building a society that values the individual, you’re interested in building one where people can only support themselves so long as you approve of their work. that makes you no better than any right-wing religious nutjob, and absolutely an enemy of working class people everywhere.

    not all viewpoints are equal, and yours are shockingly bad.

      It’s pretty fucking ironic of you to talk about “individuals right to self-determination is sacrosanct” while you zealously disrespect my beliefs and push your own onto me. Who would’ve thunk a narcissist like you is also a hypocrite.

        you zealously disrespect my beliefs and push your own onto me.

        if by “pushing my beliefs” you mean telling you shouldn’t infringe on the rights of others, then sure. add not understanding what irony is to your list of shortcomings. I don’t respect the beliefs of racists or religious nutjobs either. some viewpoints do not deserve respect. if you want to practice those beliefs, do it to yourself and nobody else. don’t demand other people abide by your abusive ideology. because if you do, then you’re gonna get pushback, and it will be well deserved.

        self-determination doesn’t mean you get to oppress people because you don’t like their work.

          You don’t even know what my point is because you don’t care. I never said anything about oppressing others. If anyone is oppressing anyone it’s you oppressing me.
