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.

Just when I start extending an olive branch to Amazon because I thought they were treating anime a little better, they pull this shit. Shame on you!
Hey just so you know Amazon decided to give us an AI ENGLISH DUB of Banana Fish instead of actually hiring real voice actors
it is fucking hot garbage

Because I thought the little cockpit looks like a cracked egg, a custom Wing Star made to look roughly like Utena Tenjou. Why the heck not.

thanksgiving is a time for people to come together, to celebrate the spirit of unity despite our differences, and to demonstrate that, here is busta rhymes performing "break ya neck" with raphael the ninja turtle

This dude goes by MR. FANTASY, and my mom was like, "That's a pretty heady title to give yourself!"
We’ve reached the WTF moment of the parade.

the goku balloon is neat and all, but after all those musical performances they should have hironobu kageyama doing the song

Chopping up brussel sprouts while I hear an instrumental mix of Cha La Head Cha La on the TV. The reason for the season.

I heard What's Up by 4 Non Blondes start playing at the parade and fabulous secret powers within me started going off like a fight or flight response

I inevitably get drawn to random minor antagonists in JoJo Parts and while I can't deny Ringo Roadagain was fucking boss,

I kinda dig this Mary Poppins motherfucker.
