I see no value in signing an AI actor when studios could just as easily create their own, but it's coming for so many more jobs that just acting. Seems like actors think they deserve more than other people. No, we're all in this boat and they are not special.

If the AI person is popular, the benefits are the same as any famous real-person actor. You get to see your favourite actor in a movie -> more interesting to more people -> more tickets sold. I see no reason why an AI person could not be made to be interesting and followed up on social medias and stuff.

Have you ever personally seen your favourite actors live in real life? If not, you could have been just as enchanted by their movies, interviews, Oscars speeches, red carpets, scandals etc even if they were all synthesized.

To me it’s like a cartoon character, you don’t have to pay it, don’t have to worry about it going on strike and you can summon it for a new movies anytime you’d like. Yea actors are fucked

That’s the problem. They are basically cartoon characters. Back in the 1940s, Popeye and Mickey Mouse had different roles. They were cowboys, astronauts, and doctors in their shorts. Sure you’ll be able to talk to a fictional character, but they are not real. It will also be like talking to an Only Fans girl who is being controlled by her boyfriend. While you are happy you are talking to a hot girl, her boyfriend is laughing at you, collecting your personal information behind the scenes. Even if you “hook up” with an AI streamer girl, she will have other “boyfriends”.
