SAG-AFTRA Takes Action Over AI Representation of Darth Vader in Fortnite

The complaint comes as the voice actor strike enters its ninth month, highlighting ongoing tensions between performers and the gaming industry. SAG-AFTRA, the union representing actors and performers, has raised concerns regarding the use of artificial intelligence to replicate the iconic voice of Darth Vader in the popular video game Fortnite.

This move underscores the broader implications of AI technology in the entertainment sector, particularly in how it affects the livelihoods of voice actors. Union representatives argue that employing AI to recreate established characters without proper compensation undermines the work of professional performers.

As the strike continues, the union is pushing for stronger protections against the unauthorized use of voice likenesses in gaming and other media. The situation reflects a growing unease within the industry about the intersection of technology and artistry, as actors seek to safeguard their rights and ensure fair treatment in an evolving landscape. The outcome of this complaint could set significant precedents for future projects involving AI-generated content.
