“League of Legends” is caught in the middle of a dispute between Hollywood’s actors union and an audio company that provides voiceover services for the blockbuster online multiplayer game.

The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists called a strike against “League of Legends” on Tuesday, arguing that Formosa Interactive attempted to get around the ongoing video game strike by hiring non-union actors to work on an unrelated title.

    Even when making something new the AI has to be “trained” on existing material. They can’t make something from nothing… yet.

    And that’s the important part: “yet”.

    AI is fairly new, so it only has human-created datasets to work off. But at some point, it’ll either generate original content on its own, or rely on content already created by other AI.

    The quality and originality of this content will probably be stale, but enough of it will be generated to make money and keep people interested, that I don’t think it’ll matter. The enshitification of the arts is rapidly upon us.

      What you’re describing there is called model collapse and it’s not a good thing. A generative AI ouroboros accumulates error until its output is useless.
