This may be out there already, but it seems like I have seen multiple teaser trailers (including Trailer 1 for Gladiator 2) that seem to have terrible writing and terrible voice overs that sound like AI.

There is no Gladiator 2 trailer? They are all fan made as far as i can tell lmfao of course they use AI
Well, I’m the dumbass. This one seemed a little more legit but after a bit it just didn’t smell right.
AI is going to enshittify so much stuff
“Enshittification” has an actual meaning, and this isn’t it.
Pls tell how it doesn’t apply fam
Enshittification is a specific business model, not just “things becoming shit”.
In this context your argument seems fairly pedantic
No? Words mean things. Enshittification is a deliberately driven business model, you’re using it to describe random happenings.
Trailer editor here. So AI voiceover is currently being used in the trailers industry, but it is never left in the final product. It’s always temporary. Trailers go through lots of iterations between the agencies that cut them, the studios that order them, and sometimes the creatives who produce the films or series. In all the revisions, it’s very common for copy (graphical text), VO, and dialogue to change constantly, which means we need to put in placeholders to quickly turnaround the next edit. Before AI, we would simply have someone in the office who has a nice deep voice to record temporary VO. Once the cut is “locked” by the client, professional VO reading is ordered and recorded to replace anything temporary. AI VO just saves a little bit of time, but it is not putting anyone out of a job in this field (yet). Speaking just from my experience, I don’t see that changing any time soon. We do lots of business with the same freelance VO artists all the time and I don’t see any interest on our side replacing them with a robot voice.
Thanks for your insight. That is interesting.
On Blinkist, I keep finding books read by AI voice. They are replacing all their human workers. So I cancelled.
