AI Video

I watched an extremely convincing video including AI versions of Andy Burnham and Gemma Collins, kindly posted by David.

What's AI video  going to be like in ten years' time? The likes of Tom Hanks and Cate Blanchett aren't even going to have to turn up for work.

They'll just get an email from Warner Brothers saying "we're going to make a Tom Hanks film, we'll send you the script once the AI has written it, and we've read it, can you sign it off? It's about an ordinary, moral man under pressure in a difficult situation, same as all your other films. Harrison Ford said no".

And Warner or Netflix or whoever will just pay them to licence their likenesses and the AI will knock out the film in three minutes. They'll review it and suggest some changes to the AI, the AI will make some counter-suggestions. Perhaps the AI will say "You know what? Matt Damon would be better than Tom Hanks for this and he's probably cheaper, have a look" and kick out a draft scene with Matt in the role instead.

Imagine what Warner Brothers or Paramount could do in ten years' time, compared to a YouTube channel.

Then the next step will be that the film studios don't really want to be paying established names for their likenesses, so they'll create their own. They'll give them a personality. Maybe they'll even appear on talk shows.
