'I drank from the chalice of blood': indie dev scrubs his game of AI-generated voice lines, having previously described the technology as 'anti-human and anti-art'
Indie developer Paolo Pedercini has removed AI-generated voice lines from his game Future? No Thanks! following backlash, despite previously defending their use for satirical purposes. Pedercini, who also used AI for code assistance, admitted to the use of generative AI in his game, which satirizes the technology itself. The controversy has led to Pedercini replacing the AI voices with those of human actors and offering refunds to players who feel betrayed.
