The Blood of Dawnwalker's lead actor reminds us why AI will always struggle to replicate a human performance

"The least interesting thing about what I do is the way my voice sounds."

Will de Renzy-Martin, the actor who plays lead character Coen in the English language version of The Blood of Dawnwalker, has reminded us of the value humans bring to a performance, versus AIs generating voice lines.

Speaking in a TikTok teaser for an upcoming episode of the My Perfect Console Podcast, de Renzy-Martin highlighted how the spoken lines themselves are only half - if that - of what an actor brings. "I think the least interesting thing about what I do is the way my voice sounds," de Renzy-Martin said. "That is really all that generative AI is able to replicate.

"It's not replicating my personality and the things that I do when I'm in the room, and the choices that I make, which is all the reasons that a director or a producer would want to work with me. And there might be directors and producers who don't want to do those things [and to use AI], but then they've got to get really good at getting performances out of something - they need to have their own ideas."

The discussion reminded de Renzy-Martin of something he apparently said four or five years ago: "Actors are pretty cheap in the grand scheme of things.
