Does Ellingby House use AI-generated content?

Yes. The developers disclose AI-generated content on the game's Steam page:

All faces that appear in the game were AI generated, except for the actors playing Jasper Holder, Adam Holder, Cheryl Holder, and Rory 'The Cleaner'. In addition, all voice performances in the game were modified with AI assistance to preserve the privacy of the original voice actors, except for the kitchen radio newsreader and all the live actors. Nothing else was created using AI.
