I see Hollywood is now very into the idea of buying something once and then owning it forever and being able to make infinite copies. Which. Isn’t quite the message they imparted upon me in my childhood. I the spirit of their own long-held stance:
A photoshopped version of the “You wouldn’t download a car” ad saying: “You wouldn’t download an actor”

I feel very out of the loop. What are Hollywood doing?
They’re trying to fire all the talent that made them rich so they can use AI to find out firsthand that creating content takes talent. Meanwhile all the talent will join creative co-ops and replace Hollywood. Big platforms will side with Hollywood and AI and also fail. The fediverse will eat them all. Muhaha I’m being simplistic…

AI Voice impressions are also getting very good, very quickly. I can convert a song to an AI celebrity cover in a few minutes on consumer grade hardware with a model trained on 15 minutes of audio. We will almost certainly reach a point within my lifetime, probably within 20 years, where you literally can’t tell the difference between an AI actor and a real one.
Jet Li refused to be in the Matrix sequels after the Wachowskis told him they’re were going to copy his appearance and kung fu moves so they could use them forever.
Digital doubles for things like unsafe stunts are fine. Using them so you never have to pay an actor again is very much not.
My bad understanding is that Hollywood was giving actors contracts where they would own your likeness forever. They wanted to effectively make 3D models of actors they could use in future projects without the actors consent. Effectively not needing to hire actors because they could use past 3D models.
If anyone has more info please correct me.
I was under the impression the main reason for the strike was something about streaming residuals
It’s both.

Lol, amazing!
This scene from The Congress feels a lot less like fiction now.
That’s such a lazy meme. The original image had everything you needed to change the text and keep it the original font.
