One of the reasons Hollywood actors remain visible is that they don’t want to be replaced by the growing use of artificial intelligence, so it’s interesting that one of the most talked about games of 2023 is an example of when using artificial intelligence makes sense. . Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier revealed that Miłogost Reczek was replaced by artificial intelligence in Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty expansion. CD Projekt isn’t just doing this to save money or anything like that, but because Reczek, who voiced the Polish version of Viktor Viktor in the game, passed away in 2021. The company considered replacing him with another actor and having that person re-record his original lines, but decided against it. Instead, they had different voice actors perform new lines and then used a Ukrainian voice-cloning software called Respeecher to create an algorithm to make it sound like Reczek. Notably, the company received approval from Reczek’s family before doing so, and his sons were “very supportive.” Still, the timing of this is fascinating. Today, voiceover and acting actors in the gaming industry are considering joining the SAG-AFTRA strike, and one of their main concerns is also the use of artificial intelligence. What do you think about replacing actors with artificial intelligence? Can it be used if the actor who once played the character dies or something like that? Bungie chose to find a new actor for Destiny 2 when Lance Reddick passed away.
