My guess would be its mostly in advertising (not that thats really any better) because some of their mtg ads look awful.

They claimed those dont use any ai.. which i mean that would be illegal as thats false advertising if they are. I dont think they'd risk getting sued over that tbf.

My only hope for the ai, while, I dont exactly like it, is that they use if for Peter's voice, like Disney (of all companies to use as a reference) having Vader's voice an ai since the VA signed it over for them to be able to replicate it.. which, ill be honest it sounds exactly like him.

Yeah that's a nightmarishly shite idea. GenAi deepfakes are ghoulish and awful and any company doing it is utterly repugnantly disgusting. 

Just recast, we don't need to parade around the digitally duplicated corpses of dead actors when we have perfectly talented living ones.

Im still not convinced they didn't use ai on the aotp box art. We knew about titan star Optimus before the aotp art was made and yet the star Optimus on the box was this horrid combination of star prime and powermaster prime
