"The Finals' AI Voicework Receives Harsh Criticism"
The Finals, an FPS game currently in open testing, is using AI for all of its voicework, saving time and money but resulting in subpar quality. The AI-generated voices sound off, with odd cadence and breathing, detracting from the overall gameplay experience. While the use of AI in video games is becoming more common, it raises concerns about the future of voice actors and the potential lack of protections against their replacement. Despite potential backlash, the impact on the game's success is likely to be minimal, as most players may not notice or be bothered by the AI-generated voices.
