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 !

    I talked about the usage of Machine Learning for the ARCs behavior in the original post. I’m cool with that. But I don’t call this genAI. The machine learning technology is fine, the pillaging of resources to create what they call “genAI” is not fine to me.

    Now I do agree that, at least for me, if the voice actors are paid for each line generated: there is no problem. I’m willing to hear that in this case it is only for the quicker pipeline. But maybe I am the cynical one: I’m convinced that it is not the case, the actors were paid for the recording sessions, not the subsequent generated lines. I would be delighted to hear otherwise from a good source.

    I agree that the fondamental problem is how AI is destroying business and ultimately people.

      Fair enough. I think it’s inevitable that some jobs are going to suffer from AI replacing partially their work, like it happens and has happened with machines and other new techs in the past. But it’s important to smooth the process, and royalties for generated content I think would be a fair deal. Maybe embark will get some pressure and disclose what they agreed to.
