AI Voice Cloning Sparks Outrage and New Union Rules in Gaming and Anime
The unauthorized use of AI-generated voice cloning has ignited a fierce response from the voice acting community, with high-profile performers speaking out and unions moving to establish firm new protections. Among the most prominent voices is Masako Nozawa, the legendary Japanese actress behind Goku in the Dragon Ball franchise, who condemned the practice in no uncertain terms. "I can't forgive them. It makes me really angry. It's no different than theft," she said, capturing the frustration felt by many working voice actors whose likenesses are being replicated without consent or compensation.
