Arc Raiders replaced some of its AI-generated voice lines with professional actors

In an unexpected twist, humans have taken some jobs back from AI. Embark Studios' CEO Patrick Söderlund recently told GamesIndustry.biz that the studio "re-recorded" some of the AI-generated voice lines in Arc Raiders with human voices, only after its successful launch in October.

Есть устойчивый стереотип: новые технологии — это всегда удел молодых. Так было со смартфонами. Так было с соцсетями. Молодёжь пробует первой, осваивает глубже, а аудитория постарше подтягивается с отставанием в 3–5 лет.С генеративным ИИ у меня уже второй год складывается совершенно другое ощущение. Среди людей, которых я наблюдаю в индустрии, на конференциях, в рабочих чатах и на Хабре, глубже всех в тему погружены не 22-летние «рожденные цифровыми». А инженеры, архитекторы,... Read more
