"In other words, we think AI should be voiced by AI - not to offend AI. This feels especially important nowadays, with AGI almost here. That's all we can say, unpacking the whole AI cultural narrative isn’t really our place."

Ah yes, of course! AI characters must be voiced by AI, or you'll hurt ChatGPT's feelings. You don't want to make ChatGPT cry!

I guess they wanted people to know they were chuds by telling the one chud joke: "Are you triggered yet, wokies? Tee-hee, we're so naughty! 🤭"

I'm not quite sure what the fuss is about with this one - I thought it was quite a clever joke, and I don't really think there's anything distasteful about it. Still, the game is of no interest to me whatsoever.

Meh. I think it's amusing, not offensive.

Oh come on. That's funny. Why does this author have a stick up their butt about this absolutely nothing burger? I'm actually somewhat irritated that you wasted my time with this complete non-story. At least I know about a new game, but seriously we don't need to have a post about every single thing that's posted on a gaming website, because a lot of it is just filler, like this.

In-game AI character Ms. Second is using AI generated voice. Using humans voices for AI character would be cultural appropriation.

I feel liket they're trying to be funny, but when you're actually hurting artists the joke doesn't land. Also, the joke feels rather... right wing.

nice of them to announce that the devs are fucking asshole right wing clowns up front.

Saved you a click:

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

In-game AI character Ms. Second is using AI generated voice. Using humans voices for AI character would be cultural appropriation.

I am not sure I understand the negative criticism?

The joke is that this is the one place where an AI voice makes perfect sense because the character is an artificial intelligence.

Incredibly distasteful? It’s worse, it’s incredibly lame.

“In other words, we think AI should be voiced by AI - not to offend AI. This feels especially important nowadays, with AGI almost here. That’s all we can say, unpacking the whole AI cultural narrative isn’t really our place.”

Not only is their joke lame and distasteful the studio is also revealing they have no idea what they are talking about. No, AGI is not almost here. This is a bigger joke than their stupid post.

So they used AI voice with the excuse that the character is an AI? Barely interesting.

Using humans voices for AI character would be cultural appropriation.

The fuck?

In other words, we think AI should be voiced by AI - not to offend AI.

What?

This feels especially important nowadays, with AGI almost here.

Goodbye.

Kinda get the feeling they used genai for more than that with the awful joke and statement about AGI being close to reality.
