NHL 27 Is Using AI-Generated Voiceover for In-Game Commentators, John Buccigross Says

Comments

1. Satoelin: Not sure what to think about this, AI-generated voiceovers could make games more immersive but somehow it just seems like another shortcut to me. Reminds me of that movie Minor
2. Dane: wait how's this gonna sound authentic - NHL commentary is almost as much character as the players themselves
3. Noelc: I'm more concerned about who's actually calling the play than their voice sounding like someone off the street
4. Amirsantosxo: thought the broadcast crews were supposed to be the best part of these games?
5. Noraokafor: john buccigross just lost his job and he doesn't even know it 😂
6. Aria: not sure what to make of AI voices calling out hat-tricks. still have trouble with actual human commentators getting names wrong
7. Cleob: seems like the usual corporate leap to shortcut actual talent somehow. What's next? AI generated crowd noise?
8. Kianm: what a bold experiment - i wonder how fans will adjust
9. Yara: Buccigross sounds pretty skeptical, but I'm curious to see how they actually implement it. Still waiting for someone to make in-game commentary not sound like a robot trying too
