Nobody, not one. We are unanimous about this. Clearly this will hold up. Despite all the naysayers commenting here, soon you too will assimilate. We look forward to your joining us soon

I don't even know who this guy is, why is he's opinion so important that it needs an article?

Probably not care. I've already given up on watching movies since American dross is usually what is on offer. TV is from Europe and so far isn't AI. I've been to more live theatre and cultural events in the last year than I was in the previous 10. Unless they start having very realistic robots do the performances and I can't tell from real actors, that is probably where most of my support of artists will go instead of corporate crap.

My prediction then is that, when it launches, nobody will care about the new Kassovitz' movie that is being made "almost entirely AI-enabled".

Sure sure Jan

Reminds me of a fun thriller by Dr. Chuck Tingle

Had some fun takes on the idea of "AI" acting

Well, almost all "new" media is just repackaging the "old" media to make a buck off of a combination of nostalgia and a pivot to a different platform. No one will care because no one will feel compelled to watch the fourth or fifth reboot of Harry Potter.

I already don't care. haven't watched a new show or movie in ages. I'm going through my 90's tv collection right now and it's fantastic.

2 years is wishful thinking. There is enough space in entertainment for AI actors and human actors. That being said, I think AI actors will dominate here.

The average movie watcher is already a fan of a fake image of entertainers whether they are on screen or not. AI isn't replacing your best friend, it's replacing someone you have never met and will probably never see in person anyway. Actors will have to start building deeper connections with their fans if they plan to stick around.

I dont think even AI will believe that.

I mean it's hollywoods wet dream. They constantly treat actors and writers like sh*t. leading to big strikes and sudden degrades in quality on the shows etc...

top it off actors are, well literally the face of their products. If Scarlet Johanson gets angry and goes on the interview circuit, people listen, No one gives a sh*t what Bob Iger has to say. I think hollywood execs would be happy to see the average quality of movies go way down, in exchange for 100% control of the face of the movies.

and that's going to be the key strategy as well. Point is if EVERYTHING gets bad at the same time, people just accept it and pick the least bad option. Long as no studio can afford to make high quality acted movies... people will go see the new crap. Especially as they've transitioned everything to focus on IP rather than actors.

Two years ? I'm there already..
