Earlier this week, modeling was done after Sony’s AI -powered role -driven footage and horizon Zero Don’s online leak. The community of the game was immediately criticized for this effort, and now human actor Ashley Berch has published his response behind Eli’s original performance.
“I saw the Tech demo earlier this week,” said Birch in a Instagram video. “The guerrilla conveyed to me to tell me that the demo does not reflect anything that was actively in development. He did not use any of my performance for a demo, so none of my face or sound data.”
But still, “I’m upset,” says Birch. “Especially about guerrillas, or horizons, or my performance, or especially about my career, even, I am not disturbed by the form of art. The performance of the game as an art format.”
The Birch video game is part of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA attacks, and an important component of these strikes calls for better protection against the unauthorized use of actors’ performance by Generative AI. “The one we are fighting is that you have to get our consent before you create the AI ​​version in any form,” Burch explained. “You have to pay us fairly, and you have to tell us how you are using this AI double.”
Earlier, the actor participated in the SAG-AFTRA video game strike of 2016-2017, demanding residual payments to the union and demanding more transparency around the actors of the characters. In particular, this strike has unable to reproduce Birch as a walk in life: to the DLC bonus event of the game before the storm.
In the current strike, the union has condemned the game industry proposals, “which are still filled with worrying flaws that will abuse our members with AI.” People like Resident Eule and Vachar 3 MOCAP Director Steve Nibeli are confident that the AI ​​will not replace real actors at any time, but these concerns are a major part of why the strike is ongoing.
“I’m not feeling upset because this technology exists, (and) not because the game companies want to use it, of course they do, they do – they always want to use technical developments.” “I just imagine a video in which someone’s performance is associated with it – it has a voice or face or movement – and it is likely that if we lose this fight, this person will have no benefit. They will have no protection, there will be no way to fight.
When Sony expels AI -driven Eli, horizontal Zero Dawn fans are suffering: “The whole game is a warning against such nonsense.”
