You may have seen a video earlier this week of Aloy, PlayStation protagonist Horizon Franchise, recreated with a generative AI in a sony test demo disclosed. The video stimulated a whirlwind of emotions of players and developers, in part because the Bot Aloy has a robotic voice found in vocal text programs, rather than that of its actor in the longtime human voice, Ashly Burch.
Although he did not use his facial or vocal data for the bot, and the guerrilla warfare tells him in advance that it was nothing for actively development, Burch admitted to feel “worried about the performance of the game as art form”. In the video below, it addresses the current current struggle of the actors of the voice for the rights linked to the AI to act vocal, as consent to developers using replicas of their performance and to know what these replicas are used for.
Sony’s disclosed video presented the Genai Aloy answering questions from Sony Interactive software engineering, Sharwan Raghiebardajal.

But the images arrive in the middle of a greater push for an AI generative by Major publishersWho see technology as a boon in the process of development, design and art with vocal action. The actor’s strike from Sag-Aftra’s voice is about to continue for a full year, and the union recently declared large companies Like WB and Take-Two games refuses to move on the use of technology to create vocal aftershocks.
This Ai Aloy represents a part of the fears of these actors: Sony and Guerrilla HorizonThey therefore have the power to do as they wish with Aloy without informing Burch of details, and this could possibly extend to his vocal performance. His biggest concern is for the actors Less secure positions than hers who could be greatly affected by this, which she admits “hurts my heart. I I love this industry and this art form and I want there to be a new generation of actors, and I want there to be so many other incredible game performances. I want to be able to continue doing this job, and if we do not win, then this future is really compromised. »»
