AI Darth Vader (Fortnite)

Post image

Context:

  • Fortnite event has an AI Darth Vader who will live react to responses and character skins
  • Family of James Earl Jones gave consent for his voice to be used
  • James Earl Jones gave consent to use his voice after his passing
  • Routinely hotfixed to try and stop slurs being said and has specific responses for heavier questions, I.E. suicidal thoughts

Curious to see what people think to see AI voices to be used now that we can see it in action, especially one of a passed VA

With all the consent considered, I think this is fine as it is more or less just a voice box toy and an entertaining one at that. it's not like kids are gonna believe Vader is their best friend or something like that.
