Nothing much to say. Just a being that observes a lot, and seldom speaks unless asked about their characters.

So, redoing this post.
But hi, I'm Autum, I'm a queer, disabled artist who is unable to work. I've contemplated doing commission work, but I'll admit that's not feasible currently due to health issues. So, I'm asking for anyone to help any way they can, I'll leave my ko-fi link.

AI is DECIMATING trades you take for granted until they're ruined by reckless slop.
Airport announcements? Somebody voices that.
Medical diagram your dentist shows you? Somebody drew that.
Your customer support ticket? Somebody answered that.
College textbooks? Somebody wrote that.

I made $125K in 2022, mostly due to Political work. I might not break $30K this year. And yet I was a finalist for Voice Actor of the Year from the Reed Awards for the best in Political. I'm a master of my craft, at the top of my game.
My profession is DYING. I'm looking for a side hustle.

Amazon has had many opportunities to create dubbing projects filled with authentic storytelling, emotional connection, and believability. Instead they have chosen to create AI slop dubs of Banana Fish, Vinland Saga, and No Game No life. Many are calling these dubs "insulting" and "disrespectful".

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.
tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

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.

If you don't get that the "yucky porn games" are the gateway to censor further media that YOU personally think is acceptable, you need to get your head out of your ass. They're trying to divide people into smaller groups so their collective power is also smaller. Kill the cop in your head.
Already seeing folks say, "Well, HORSES isn't YUCKY PORN like other games are, so..." which is super frustrating.
Now is NOT the time to be throwing the hentai games you happen not to like under the bus. Your rage should be directly at payment processors.

Having seen this, I’ve got to say, the KPop Demon Hunter fans need to re-discover Final Fantasy X-2, where you play a girl band who changes fighting classes by changing dresses and has no less than two concerts on the way to saving the world from a giant weapon.
Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:
