Ai has been a big issue this year as the acting industry fought to keep at bay. Now it seems to be coming into the anime industry through subtitles. Crunchyroll is looking into using AI to do subtitles. This came up with the President of Crunchyroll.com talked with the Verge Rahul Purini.
[According to Purini, Crunchyroll is looking into how AI can bolster subtitling creation and closed captions. The internal tests are being done to “optimize processes” behind the scenes in an effort to release anime even closer to its Japanese release. Purini said AI could also become a tool to better suggest titles to users. And for employees, generative AI can be used to create different workflows.]
This move is shocking as we have seen a hard stance against AI being used in entertainment. At the same time fans have gone after Crunchyroll for what has been called lazy subtitling. The article by Comicbook.com uses Yuzuki family as an example. This is being tested out with results are known. As such we will see what happens and when I hear more I will let you know.
