Video game voice star Troy Baker says 'only humans' can make art

In an AFP interview, voice actor Troy Baker argued that "we're talking about art," asserting only humans can create it, speaking soon after releasing his latest title, "Screamer."
The 50-year-old actor remains "not afraid of anything replacing artists," believing human connection is central to his work and that "history has shown us that technology creates more opportunities than it replaces."
Unlike "multimillion-dollar sets" common in film, Baker contributes his voice to over 430 titles including "The Last of Us" and "Indiana Jones and the Great Circle," often working remotely via Zoom.
Baker earned recognition for voicing Harrison Ford's hero in 2024's "Indiana Jones and the Great Circle," with the Hollywood star congratulating him at the Game Awards in Los Angeles.
Despite circulating rumors of a third game, Baker said he "cannot imagine any more of" Joel's story left to tell, though the original 2013 title spawned a 2020 sequel and HBO series.
