    That’s too bad because I love South American accents. I get the reasoning but it’s too bad they resort to AI instead.

    I have a friend that wants to get into voice acting and I bet he’d get into doing real overdubs in English for a fairly low rate.

    Do you think there would be a good market for people to read scripts in an American accent so that people with other accents don’t have to use AI? I kinda think so because if I encounter a video with AI voice I turn it off immediately. If it’s a non-American accent I will keep listening as long as I can understand it.

    Overall I think it’s better to be yourself when you make a video and not take those shortcuts but if someone has good quality research I’ll put up with some amount of AI shit.

    Physics by Eugene Khutoryansky is one of my favorites.

      They’re probably is, but it depends on how cheaply the video creators want to make their stuff. Or if they even care.

      On top of the accent thing, there was also the reasoning that “I can sit at the beach and make my videos, and I don’t need to worry about finding silence” that was a motivation too.
