people act like using ai for a dead actor's voice is some grave sin, but i remember watching that wonka trailer and thinking it actually captured something genuine about wilder's spirit that felt respectful, not exploitative like everyone claims.
hard disagree lol
Look, it's just an AI voice doing an impression-nobody's actually getting hurt here. I once watched a deepfake video of my cousin and honestly it was kind of funny, not the end of the world everyone claims it is.
Using AI for Gene Wilder's voice cuts production costs and keeps his legacy alive digitally. Isn't preserving an actor's essence through technology better than recasting or silence?
Look, if the AI voice nails Wilder's iconic delivery and audiences can't tell the difference, what's actually the problem here? Nostalgia isn't a copyright claim.
I think it's actually wonderful that Netflix wanted to honor Gene Wilder's legacy by recreating his iconic voice for new audiences. It shows real respect for his character and keeps that magical performance alive for fans.
