I'm gonna nitpick this part here as a lot of the (successful) corpos have a no Throne rule as they can't claim revenue from that so it essentially bypassing the company overhead. With Gen 2 of idol for instance they relaxed that with PLs it seemed and I wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't one of the things that irked prior members. While not everyone has the same contract details it was piss easy to find out that Menace still had a throne while Rye did not.

TLDR, you can take a cut of supas but taking a cut of a dildo is way harder

Yeah, no Throne for corpo identity is fine, but only that.Corpo have no right to forbid it under PL identity, unless they want to pay salary and all. But if corpo allow it on main - well, sucks to suck i guess. You will get unlimited dildo works, or worse (sonichu medallion).

Remember that not everywhere talents would have to spend any money to get corpo in legal trouble for arbitrary termination and whatnot. Europe have some strong labor boards with a lot of legal power. In some countries you can show jap shitty contract and some reciepts to authorities, they void it, then any corpo lawsuit attempt will be instadenied without your intervention.

Yagoo posted his take on LinkedIn about AI possibly taking over vtubers

Sorry @MR.T800 , Skynet-chan's not taking over. Yet.

Indistinguishable AI vtubers by 2029, calling it.

The "purpose" of a tool is irrelevant to how it functions or will be used. AI music has already reached the point where the vast majority can not tell the difference, and will by the end of the year be perfected. For the minority of people who actually do feel an emotional connection with music, this is going to cause of lot of existential crises. AI vtubers will be the same way.

One thing I've noticed about AI bros, and I don't know if this is just a cover for the coomer stuff, is they are deadset in the mindset of "More content = good."
They're rather have an uninteresting, unfunny, incomprehensible TV show running 24/7 then well crafted and entertaining episodes. A streamer that is live at all times sounds like free money to the AI investor who has no clue or care for the medium. We've seen AI bros hype up "AI games" made from composite video that can't keep track of the player's health, world position, inventory, or anything you'd normally expect to be consistent as if they it were industry destroying tech.

Personally, I want to see AI content creation accelerate so it loses a fuckload of money very quickly.

This is based on the understanding of AI at one point in time. AI games are in its infancy - really, more like proof of concept. They are not how they will be in ten years, five years, or one year. For games, I'm thinking every game will be completely AI generated by 2035.

We've seen this with AI music (barely functional in 2020, now better than nearly everything new on the radio and streaming), and are now seeing it with AI video - which was an amusing mess just a couple years ago, with the latest models being near-real. By the end of the year, there will be very few things it can do. By 2027, full-fledged "live-action" movies will be completely AI generated.

The rate AI has progressed in just five years is insane, and is in my eyes going faster than the advancement of computer technology we saw in the decade of the '90s.

Is this the 'normal' voice or no? I tried looking into older vods (a whole one) and it just sounds slightly lower pitch, but like the kind of lower pitch between speaking energetically and just speaking casually.

Sounds fine either way. I don't get how some women will get in their heads "They won't like me if I sound normal!" like, damn woman have you seen some of the fucking dogs that get simps or heard them speak? Often enough just being female is enough to get dedicated audience, now imagine being entertaining and/or talented on top of that to be worth watching.

She was not kidding with the fact that it's almost a new outfit.

[Wixoyu]

She doesn't specify which management, but I agree that it seems impossible that no one knew.

She clarified about this in a later stream. My memory at this point it hazy, but the gist is that of course her manager knew, it was passed up the chain in EN management and then they submitted it to JP upper management. Later on a JP middle manager found out and was like , but Nerissa already had the actual approvals so nothing was done to her, and she later had more streams with her family.

Says she's been banned/forbidden by management from combining the fishnet stocking accessory with the "no skirt" & "no sweater" options since it would be "TOO LEWD"

If she said she changed some mic settings I don't anyone would even think twice of such a minor difference.

If Kiara was a Twitch indie and literally nothing else about her content or the way she carries herself changed, the TVA's collective opinion of her would be about the same as Shylily's.

LOL, I know we like to dunk on Kiara quite a lot here but other than her autism for lewd outfits and playful thirsting for in-game females and co-workers, she's actually pretty tame compared to how whore-ish Shylilly can get:

Cool it there bucko!!! Rie will never achieve true hag status. She may have chinesium bones but half of the hag appeal is them being chill and rie would have a three day melty if you bring pippa the rippa on the phase music channel

Literally the only thing I need to respond to this is the fact that the Squirmini throne would be considered a company account. Disregarding all the PL stuff (which remind you most corpos require a halt to pl activities).

And for once id like to see these magical Euro laws come up and show their face. But just like Euros themselves they don't do shit
