In the past week, a voice over agency got bullied off Twitter for posting that actors refusing to work with AI are “cutting off their noses to spite their face.”

We need more energy like that, especially when companies straight up just use AI instead of actors and assume nobody will say shit.

Several months ago, actors made it clear that they were withholding work from Genshin Impact because of a lack of basic AI protections

Hoyo fans told them it would/could never be an issue

Last night, Hoyo posted several official videos promoting Genshin's new mode

Here's what the VO sounds like.

My donations have almost disappeared. Since losing my account two months ago, everything has been falling apart. My family relied on me, and now we’re struggling to survive. I made a GoFund link because I fear Bluesky blocked Chuffed. Can we rise together and reach $120 today?

To add to this:

"We're just a small game, we can't afford voice actors!"

Then don't have voiced characters. Use text boxes. If you can't afford to pay an artist, then you don't get the art, simple as.

"We're only using AI as placeholder dialogue, to get a sense for how it'd sound with voices"

Why?? Literally why??? You could grab the shittiest laptop microphone and DO that

Aura/Moom @moomanibe.bsky.social · 6d

"I think it's fine to use AI for concepting as long as it doesn't make it into the final game" is a statement that will never fail to set me off

Michigan has a similar bill, House Bill 4938, that is also seeking the same goals!

KOSA just got a bunch of new cosponsors so, y'all, kindly tell them to knock it the fuck off.
Make this bill unpassable for the sake of keeping the open internet, enough of this censorship BS and "protect the children" excuses.

I want to remind people that when there is a call to action to "contact your reps", it needs to be more than once

Going forward, contacting your reps needs to become part of your routine, at the very least during the work week.

Sustained pressure over time is what matters!

These calls are about showing up in numbers AND demonstrating that you are a voter demographic that will not just drop the issue after throwing a brief tantrum

If a bunch of people call and KEEP calling, thats hard to ignore in the long term

Canadians! The UK is attempting to push their own version of the Online Safety Act onto Canada via the bill S-209!

You need to contact your representatives in parliament and explain how this policy is catastrophically bad! Mention the discord data breach!

A small victory! Chat Control has been tabled for now, but it can [and likely will] be brought up for vote again in December

In the meantime, EU citizens will need to continue pressuring their respective govts to oppose chat control

However, do so knowing that pressure WORKS.

Fight Chat Control @fightchatcontrol.bsky.social · 17d

Denmark has tabled next week's vote on Chat Control.

Yet, per Peter Hummelgaard:

"The Danish Presidency will, however, continue to work with the member states to find a solution, and therefore negotiations on the technical details of the proposal continue. It is urgent to find common ground."

Dont be discouraged by the fact a vote can be done again in Dec.

It has been tabled because we as a group organized against it. We did that! You did that! This is a W!
