Hollywood’s video game performers voted to go on strike Thursday, throwing part of the entertainment industry into another work stoppage after talks for a new contract with major game studios broke down over artificial intelligence protections. 

The strike — the second for video game voice actors and motion capture performers under the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists — will begin at 12:01 a.m. Friday. The move comes after nearly two years of negotiations with gaming giants, including divisions of Activision, Warner Bros. and Walt Disney Co., over a new interactive media agreement. 

SAG-AFTRA negotiators say gains have been made over wages and job safety in the video game contract, but that the studios will not make a deal over the regulation of generative AI. Without guardrails, game companies could train AI to replicate an actor’s voice, or create a digital replica of their likeness without consent or fair compensation, the union said.

So it’s your opinion. Got it.

Still trying to make your ignorance my responsibility

Still trying to make people think you’re not ignorant.

[-] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Someone using the “I know you are but what am I” defense isn’t really in a position to comment on another person’s knowledge or intelligence.

[-] radivojevic@discuss.online -3 points 2 months ago

That’s your opinion, which is the only thing you have to give.

[-] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Judging by all the downvotes all of your comments here have been getting, it seems that you’ve demonstrated it as fact. And everyone seems to agree.

And all you have to offer is petty emptiness. Another thing you’ve proven.

I have votes turned off because I don’t care

Whatever you have to tell yourself so you can sleep at night, lol

[-] radivojevic@discuss.online -1 points 2 months ago

I sleep great knowing you think about me so much.

Are you an AI trained on playground insults?

Yo mama so fat, when she goes camping, the bears hide their food.

[-] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

So, you go to sleep thinking about me… You just admitted to the thing you accused me of, lol

[-] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago

I have you blocked for the same reason.

[-] radivojevic@discuss.online 0 points 2 months ago

Yet you see me.

[-] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago

Ah! So if I say "I'm not responsible for demonstrating gravity," then it no longer exists, and we started floating into space? Fascinating.

[-] radivojevic@discuss.online -1 points 2 months ago

If I ask you to prove your statement and you don’t then you are immediately right and we start floating into space? Fascinating.

[-] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago

Ah, I see the issue. You lack reading comprehension.

[-] radivojevic@discuss.online 2 points 2 months ago

I was thinking the same about you.
