    Wow. I was skeptical about the voice AI at first, but with those demonstrations I'm hyped for the final result! Just remember to try and mimic the characters' cadence and manner of speaking, for its the unique manner they talk that sells people like the Emperor (evil), Vader (his strong paused sentences) and Boba Fett (with his slight hint of kiwi accent)

  • @godhump222

    The only potential problem I see here is the voiced AI. Actors, especially voice actors, are extremely hostile to the technology and have taken legal action against people copying their likenesses before. A key incident was the "Jack's Shoreleave" mod for "Mass Effect 3." The VA that played Jack took legal action to get it taken down.
    Then there is the fact that James Earl Jones signed the rights of his voice over to Disney for future Vader projects.
    Not only that, but using someone's voice and appearance without their consent is a morally dubious thing to do anyway.

    • @starwarsfananimations
      @starwarsfananimations  Před měsícem

      The way I see it, it’s not that different than good impressions or using audio processing like EQ, Dynamics, and temporal editing to make audio sound more similar. In fact machine learning essentially does that just with higher accuracy than pro-sound editors. If for instance someone copied a minor or random regular person’s voice and put it all over the internet without their consent, particularly in situations unbefitting of that person, then I’d agree that’s not right, but using an actors appearance in fanmade work of characters that person has already played (for instance Mark Hamill as Luke for 47 years in 7 movies and 3 TV episodes, most recently in 2022) I don’t see an issue with that. And all of these AI voices will have a real person’s voice performance driving the final output, so it’s more or less a speech filter.
