Yet another example of why “opt-in” should be the default instead of “opt-out”. Despite who SAG is supposed to be helping, they don’t half seem to hate people working in the industry.
No, it’s an example of why people should involve themselves in their union. Opt-in unions is just a way that conservatives and employers found to make sure that unions lose power.
Except in this case actors are systematically signed up to potentially lose a lit of money or lose work completely. I can’t begin to fathom why SAG thought anyone would be on-board with this. Well, other than a big ol’ under-the-table payout for them.
Edit: seems people are in support of workers getting shafted by those who are supposed to represent them. Interesting. The internet never fails to sicken.
ethical use of AI voices in creative projects by game developers,
It takes a job that would have been done by a voice actor and uses previous work of theirs instead. The fact that the ethics of AI like this are casually accepted by so many continues to be troubling to me. It’s straight up replacement for what should be more work for the voice actor. That is in no way ethical.

Time to form a specialised union with all the top names and secure your own terms.
Was this traded away to get concessions elsewhere and a deal over the line?

They’re free to start their own Union and otherwise, see my first point.

God I can’t wait until the AI buzzword dies.
