    Cool. If the AI voices are an acceptable quality, cheaper for production, and faster to implement, then I’m in favor. I’m not super attached to a person or a specific voice in new animation or voice-acted media. Reducing costs and speed of media creation is a good thing.

      If you cared about any work of animation in the last century, I find that hard to believe.

        His viewpoint is just like the producers the writers and actors are striking against; that it’s all a commodity to be consumed and he’s not invested in the creative process or supporting the talent that creates movies & television. As long as Hollywood churns out media (regardless of its quality), this guy is all there for it.

        I’ve cared about animated works, and I still care a little bit about the product/franchise/etc… I have never cared about the specifics of the people behind the microphones, or the artist drawing it or using CGI/CAD to create it. The “human factor” is totally unimportant to me, only the end product.

          I’m not one to keep fawning over celebrities either, but when it comes to art and media, the end product is only possible because of the human factor. It’s the inspirations, experiences and values of the people behind a work that lead to them to try to express themselves as well as they can.

      I just hope that the actors, writers and studios completely destroy the Hollywood machine. We can catch up on our DVDs for a year or two and then hopefully something new will come up with no affiliation with the existing studios and unions. Let the whole thing burn.
