In a just world this would lead to Corey's colleagues in the cast standing by him publicly, but sadly I imagine more than half of them are too scared of backlash from the fandom/company to do so.
It shouldn't be that way. I get why it is.
But this kind of treatment of VAs should not be happening.

Corey Landis has posted email exchanges between himself and the representatives for HoYoVerse where he makes it clear he was not communicated with re: his being replaced, and also?
He refused to sign paperwork that, in his words, was not industry standard.

the moment when a painting or drawing i'm making goes from "this is dogshit and i'm a fraud" to "actually we're back" can be so transcendently beautiful, it's a shame that it's one of the many things people who use AI are denying themselves

Damn economy keepin me from enjoying games 😔
The drop off here… people should stop and consider the long term impact of this. Fits in with what Mat mentioned earlier this year re Gen Z spending. Long term, what is the industry barreling toward if this is the climate?

I really hope some of you all understand why actors would strike before hard evidence of genAI use in certain game titles existed, and why they would do so even outside of the strict purview of a union.

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone
- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware
but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

I know the Saudi Evo buyout sucks, but this is why it’s important to support your local FGC if you can. If the mainstream FG tourneys end up bending to the will of blood money, then it’s up to the community to sustain itself.

I cannot stress enough to any other Australians to please avoid KWS verification like the plague.
I was checking through what bluesky's verification was and just immediately with this.
If you don't know, KWS had a data breech and it was confirmed user data was stolen that was supposed to be deleted

i’m so sick of the way people feel entitled to cheap clothes. people are taking “no ethical consumption under capitalism” to mean “don’t blame me if there were slaves in the supply chain.”
clothes should cost money—the solution is that you need less clothes, and that you should be paying a lot more

"the union is a third party, let's resolve our issues directly" is a common management anti-union talking point, but I think pro-union folks also too often think of "the union" as a separate entity that can solve their problems for them, instead of a vehicle for members to create change themselves.
I think we need to change the way we talk about SAG-AFTRA. Not a dig at Jeff here (I too would like to see a SAG-AFTRA Amazon Agreement,) but we've got to stop referring to SAG-AFTRA as an organization that can just "step in" and do stuff.
I just wanna see SAG-AFTRA step in & establish a dubbing agreement with Amazon much like the Netflix agreement. That would be the best path forward.

A LOT of stuff involving AI doesn't bother asking for permission so them not bothering feels like a natural extension of how companies wield AI as this legal void to do stuff that would definitely get you sued when humans were involved.
Kadokawa stated that it did not approve of an AI dub, and Sentai stated that it wasn't aware of the dub beforehand.
