Comment on Amazon Doubles Down on AI Dubs for Anime Despite Backlash: Creative Director Wanted

They totally fucked this up. AI dubs “aren’t there yet.” They’re still years away from being decent enough to get the job done.
If they really want to save money using AI, the correct way, with today’s technology, is to use an AI voice changer! Hire a real voice actor and then make them do all the voices, then use the AI voice changer to make them sound like each character.
…but they’re so fucking cheap and lazy they won’t even do that.

I have to imagine it would be difficult to get a competent voice actor to agree to that, but I suppose even a semi-competent beginner desperate to get work would yield better results than we saw a few weeks ago.
