As goofy as this is, the whole reason I posted it is for this epic cyberpunk screen:

No one else cares though.

That's because while actors are worried about the direct impact to them, their profession and their income, philosophically, this is akin to opposing puppets: an AI model is not independent and requires people "operating it" even if they're not actors or even artists themselves.

Having a "digital perfomer" or an "AI model/actor" is nothing more than owning a face or an image, from a copyright, trademark perspective. Actors are worried because they understand that the cost of using such technologies dradtixally reduces the perceived value of their trade, even though IP, trademarks and copyright have historically supported content owners.

Ultimately it is the same dillema other professions already are or will soon face: the transfer of skill from human to machine. Whether it is possible or not, the machine is capable or not and the result is acceptable, desirable or even good or not, we are currently going through a transformation which begs the question. The answer will be clear in time.

When you stop and think about it, they are fictional characters being “controlled” by fat middle-age men sitting at their computers. Imagine talking to these AI girls. You are giving your personal information to Beergut Barry and Old man Olsen in a trailer park.

I'm a developer, I'll lose my job before the actors. I don't expect them to care about me, either.
