Embark Studios has come under fire for its use of AI-generated voices in its latest game, The Finals. The criticism, primarily from actors and designers, questions the authenticity of AI voices generated using technology similar to ElevenLabs' TTS API. Embark Studios has clarified the use of AI voices, stating it is not an attempt to replace human performers but a mix of human voices and AI trained on actor/dev voices. The studio also hinted at a larger plan for the technology in place of human performers.
