“Alix Wilton Regan is best known for her roles as Samantha Traynor in Mass Effect 3, Alt Cunningham in Cyberpunk 2077, or the Female Inquisitor in the Dragon Age series, but her credits span over 16 years in the video game industry, and many more on-screen before that.
But as the threat of AI continues to grow with regular industry strikes standing up for talent, and executive greed plagues the industry, Wilton Regan, alongside author Nolan Kelly and a cast of highly accomplished female and non-binary actors, are fighting back.”

“Even with hard-won legal protections in video game contracts, actors can still find their voices being manipulated by AI against their wishes. ‘A lot of us, certainly from the Baldur's Gate 3 cast, have found our voices on some very questionable websites, where your voice is reading whatever the person wants,’ says Wilde. ‘Very grim, and very dark.’
TIVA, at least, shows a way that can prevent this.“

“We look at those machines, and we call it AI, but it isn’t actually intelligent. It’s literally just autocomplete. Seriously, who wants to read a book that was compiled by autocomplete? And who wants to do the same for pictures or for voices? Because… if people couldn’t be bothered to write it, why should we be interested in listening to it? The same goes for journalists, too. I mean, why would be bother reading journalism that was generated by a machine, rather than you people actually talking to people?”

“TIVA (True Indie Voice Art), co-founded by author Nolan Kelly and award-winning actress Alix Wilton Regan (Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Lies of P: Overture), today launched its first original audio novel, PAX ROMANA. The release marks the first in a series of storytelling projects designed to reshape the future of narrative audio, built on creative collaboration and transparent revenue sharing among all the cast members and creators.”
