@SeaDaVie Thats fair enough i cant find a source that says exactly what sony products not that it matters what the product is as any product assembled in those conditions is bad.

And you are right about the backlash as i remember it myself but i dont remember it being reported much about in the gaming community and getting pushback from people in the gaming community as much as something like ai.

@SeaDaVie is your comprehension bad i said sony are responsible becuase the materials used to build there products are from child labour which that article states that they are responsible becuase they didnt care to check where the materials where sourced from.

Also another source here says that says sony amongst other knowingly worked with factories exploting Uighur Muslims in China.

Also heres one about student labour abuse in China where students were forced to work on sony laptops and ps4s amongst other companies products:

Again i repeat the point that im not saying all this to take some moral high ground i said it just to point out how its funny how some people wont buy certain games on a moral stance due to its affects on the game industry and the enviroment as a whole when stuff like this has happend in the past and didnt affect there view on sony or others.

@SeaDaVie

1. The how can you say its not happend/happening that litterally contradicts everthing.

2. I used the points of child and slave labour to point out how its stupid how people have have made such a big deal about ai and how they couldnt support a game that uses ai from a moral standpoint and refuse to buy it yet they buy products from sony which have engaged in these practices which are far worse thing to have happend compared to ai usage in games yet they still support them which is totatlly fine but it just seems silly to complain about.

@SeaDaVie i wasnt on about child labour in the factories directly i was on about that resources procured through child labour are being used at the factorys which makes them and sony responsible.

But my main point isnt about the all this which you completely miss of all the things that happen in the gaming industry (and the wider world but im not going there) people choose to get angry about ai usage instead of something like this which obviously affects more than just sony with xbox and nintendo having similat issues in the past.

Always makes me luagh where people draw the line on things especially with ai i mean wheres the out rage that sony have used child labour in the past.

Something which is truely abhorrent yet you wont see anybody refusing to buy sony products or any other companys for that matter but as soon as a game developer uses ai thats it they wont buy that game for there platform that was built using slave labour.

Dont understand some of the ai concers if a studio is using an ai model that learns off there own work then that elimimates the plagarism side and then artists usually touch up the final result if needed.

That been said i dont want ai to fully replace voice actors but for npcs who spit out the same line again it could be useful and neither would i want fully ai generated games but i dont see a problem with them using it for bits and peices here and there.
