    As sympathetic as I am to the plight of AI to creators being a musician and all I can’t help but think actors have been given an extraordinarily cushy ride given that practically anyone can be an actor, this MF was born with good looks and wants an award for it every year, eat a dick.

    That’s dumb as Hell. At best, “good” “AI” “acting” would compete in categories like “best screenplay” or “best animation” or something like that, because there’s no actual acting or actor involved.

    He’s not wrong that the film industry is going to do everything it can to eliminate the costs of expensive human actors, though, although the summary blurb is wrong ascribing his remarks as addressing “younger generations.” Trademarking themselves might help the incumbent superstars for a while, but any actor who doesn’t already have that kind of fame has no real future career.
