CD Projekt Red Uses AI to Recreate Voice of Deceased Cyberpunk 2077 Actor for New Expansion
-
Cyberpunk 2077 voice actor Miłogost Reczek passed away in 2021 but had lines for the Phantom Liberty expansion.
-
CDPR got permission from his family to use AI to recreate his voice performance and "pay tribute" to him.
-
They used Respeecher AI to modify new recordings to sound like Reczek's voice based on past samples.
-
This case shows AI being used respectfully, but there are concerns about unethical use of AI voices without permission.
-
Video game voice actors are alarmed at AI being used to recreate their voices without consent.
