Video game voice actors are fearing that the ability for generative AI to replicate their voices may cost them work and, more fundamentally, control of their own voice.

Yeah, it'll be like buying instrument sample packs for keyboards. Electronics musicians have been doing this for ages. Now you'll be able to buy the "12 gruff voices" pack and tell it to read your script. It'll be great for NPCs, but probably not good enough for main characters in AAA titles.

If anything, someone needs to create a more effective marketplace for actors to licence out their voices rather than just handing their livelihoods over in a single payout deal.
