No actor dies anymore; Artificial intelligence can play in place of deceased actors!

Artificial intelligence has caused a lot of worries for Hollywood actors and also brought a wave of protests, but will artificial intelligence replace actors?

Many Hollywood actors and writers believe that the future of their careers will be greatly changed by artificial intelligence, and for this reason they are demanding contracts to prevent possible abuses. In this regard, since the demands of Hollywood writers and actors have not been properly answered, they started to strike.

Actors and writers are seriously concerned about artificial intelligence

In this regard, Fran Drescher, the president of the Actors Guild of America (SAG-AFTRA), said that artificial intelligence is a threat to creative professions, and all actors have the right to prevent the misuse of their identity and talent without consent and payment. do In fact, if such demands are not acted upon now, artificial intelligence will replace actors and writers in the future.

Meanwhile, the Actors Guild of America has joined the Writers Guild of America, which, as the representative of Hollywood screenwriters, has been on strike since 2 months ago to protect writers from artificial intelligence and demands the signing of a contract that protects writers and their works. The Writers Guild of America announced that artificial intelligence should not write literary material, should not rewrite scripts and use them to teach itself.

Meanwhile, the Writers Guild of America and the Actors Guild of America went on strike because in recent years artificial intelligence tools were able to create very good images and writings; in such a way that they can imitate people’s faces and voices and create similar works.

Also, tools such as ChatGPT also have the ability to write and have recently gained a lot of popularity. Of course, currently these tools do not have the ability to create stories at the level of writers and they use the works of famous people in their writings.

Actors also have many concerns about the future impact of artificial intelligence on their careers; In fact, they believe that if strict regulations are not established for this field, these tools can have a great impact on their jobs and prevent them from earning money.

Surveys show that studios are also abusing artificial intelligence; For example, the studios considered a proposal in which they are going to make digital copies of the actors of the Black Army for just one day’s wages. This digital copy will also belong to the companies forever and they can use it for free in their future projects without paying a fee.

There are also other concerns such as the use of digital copies of the original actors after their death. In fact, the actors believe that by preparing a digital version, studios may use these versions in their works in the future and after their death. Therefore, strict contracts are needed to prevent any possible abuse, and actors and writers will not stop striking until their demands are met.
