Good job, guys. See if you can't make similar results happen for No Game, No Life and Vinland Saga.
Getting close to time to start asking for the same kind of fervor for AI generated closed captions as well. You can fight this, it CAN work.

Very easily. Every person in there is miserable and doing an impression of what they think is a cool and self-actualized person looks like. It must feel like being surrounded by ghosts

Gonna start applying the "everyone is 12" mindset to as many things as possible so I stop getting mad at dumb shit.

it’s fun watching people see what trans folks have been warning of for years. the media has no capacity to inform about the politicization of health care

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.
tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

The psychology of this website is so transparent. They're not attacking progressive media (who don't give a shit) so much as they're naming access bootlickers who already often cater to the WH anyway — because they’ll actually freak out and change their coverage *even more.*
Just working the refs.

rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

Calling the TV adaptation of Sasakoi a "hit anime" got me wondering where the boundary of false advertising is.

Welp, a second AI dub on Amazon has apparently been found, and it's a show that already had a perfectly normal (albeit non-union) dub: No Game No Life.

AI Data Centers are the new pollutant factories to put into black neighborhoods that they pretend wont kill us. Gotta love that old school environmental racism.
“While Shelby County has recorded the dirtiest air in Tennessee for many years — half the state’s admissions for childhood asthma come from there — local residents say the arrival of Colossus has made things worse.”
In Memphis, where people fear Elon Musk’s supercomputer is making them ill
Colossus, an xAI supercomputer, is blamed for worsening air pollution in a historic black community

Morale at paypros call centers is in the toilet right now. It’s not just normal Black Friday stress, they’re being pounded. Corporate is pressuring bosses to end the paypros call campaigns. Source familiar w/ internals at MC stressed that folks should stand their ground but be kind to agents (1)
