Steve Downes and Jen Taylor on AI Voice Over and Union Protections - Motor City Comic Con 2024
Back in May 2024, two months before the video game actors' strike, Jen Taylor and I responded to a question at Motor City Comic Con regarding the use of AI replicating the performances of voice and performance capture actors in video games.
We are now a month into the SAG-AFTRA strike, and the game makers have not budged. All we are asking of these corporations, who make BILLIONS from these games, is to work with my union to develop reasonable guardrails to protect the performances of the actors who bring life and humanity to the games you love.
Stay tuned and subscribe to this channel. I'll have more to say on this topic in the coming weeks.
UNION STRONG!
Steve Downes, the voice of Master Chief, and Jen Taylor, the voice of Cortana, share their thoughts on AI-generated voiceovers and discuss how their union is working to protect their jobs.

Hi
If it wasn't AI, it would be impressionists. You will not stop fans from mimicking you.
1:34 #TheRealMasterCheeks 😂
Can't let them take away the soul of these characters by taking the actors out of it.
Does the world really need AI making more weird porn
Never thought I’d here Cortana talk bad about Ai
Let’s hope the union comes through!
Parody is fair use. Cant do anything about it.
I thought that before he said! 😁
It always starts out harmless. Hoping everyone brushes it under the rug. And then it takes off. Glad you guys are working to put a stop to it.
I mean. She has a very valid point tho 😂😅
I think i speak for us all when i say, that we would never accept either of you being replaced by AI. Ever!
5:36 he *forged* it
3:00 I want pls I want 😩
I want this guy to go out on Halloween and wear a master chief costume and prank people with his voice 😂
I thought that was Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool makeup
Fuck 343 fr
This is important as f. Do not give up on this.
Holy crap. If this is _the_ Steve "Master Chief" Downes and I got a heart from him, well, my year is complete. Sweden says hi!
Yeah.. it's fkd.
It's a gd disgrace.
When it turns out 343 actually cooked with the Halo 5 Created Uprising storyline
I agree with you guys, AI should be a cautious thing because imagine if someone heard your voice doing what you said like pornography or violence that it tarnished the PR or your image. This could be a whole fiasco and disaster for VA’s, and rather instead of these loose AI creations on the run there should be a standard for keeping them in check. However because the Internet is such a ravaging dog without its collar it’s hard to predict what is gonna happen. I just hope nobody gets hurt from these AI uses despite the memes & videos put out there.
i love this man
Can’t believe, using yours and countless other voice actors voices, that there’s not some sort of copyright infringement. Because ya. Exactly. People can make money off you and others. That’s not right. It’s not their voice. At least try to impersonate…
Or use a voice to sway viewers for their own gain. Or like you said. Something X rated…
AI is certainly a frightening thing for VA's. Unfortunately, the law always takes eons to catch up with technology. Although I think true talent can never be replicated by AI.
Be strong, Chief. The Created have spread like a wildfire.
AI should have NO part in Voice Acting. They sound soulless, have no emotions, shallow and it’s something that is only meant for human beings to do. As someone that is trying to get into the voice acting industry for video games, this is definitely a concern. No doubt!
Even the Chief has soul and emotion, as difficult as it may be to find
I got to meet steve downes he is such an awesome person
Master chief “Finish the fight” activates beast mode and wins the war
This is a *very* contentious issue and I'm 100% endorsing the points made here. Difficult as it is to draw it, a line really needs to be drawn and adhered to somehow.
Exactly. This is just the start. I’ve never been a fan of AI. Seen one to many movies 😂 but it takes away more jobs. More freedom. And before you know it. No one will have a voice.
Idk why I clicked so fast but I’m interested to hear what this is about. Edit: I know what it’s about now
Why is the mom furious with a belt in her hand 😂😂😂
I met steve downes at an anime convention and took a photo with him. super cool guy
“Sir, permission to leave the station?” “For what purpose, Master Chief?” “To give the Covenant back their bomb.” “…..Permission granted.” “I know what you’re thinking, and it’s crazy.” “So, stay here?” “Unfortunately for us both…I like crazy” “Just one question. What if you miss?” “…..I won’t.”
"To give the Covenant back their bomb."
Master Chief
” somebody please, get. This. Man. a. Gun"
Followed by "Right this way"
"I am John halo and I'm gonna do some chiefing"
Damn now i need to go play Halo
It amazes me how many people show up for these weird events
The most dangerous line you1 can hear
I still think a scarier line would be I don't need a weapon. Proceeds to un alive the villain with a ham sandwich.😮
Cortana ❤❤
Meanwhile your average Marine be like....."I AM the weapon."
"Tell that to the Covenant" dang bro that's gotta be one of chief's coldest lines ever
1&2 had some of the most badass lines ever
There's only one chief. Thank you sir
I just came.....sorry I'll see myself out
Wake me when you need me is my favorite.
