What do you think the actor’s strike was about? And what do you think one of the key agreements the actors wrung out of the studios was? They were not about to allow their likenesses to be sold for all of eternity for pennies on the dollar.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
It doesn’t work like that. It will soon if Disney has their way, with actors selling away their likeness rights for perpetuity with their contracts.
That’s very interesting… can you suggest a good article covering this topic?
For example this: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/08/disney-reportedly-creates-task-force-to-explore-ai-and-cut-costs.html and this: https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/sag-aftra-amptp-studios-contract-artifial-intelligence-details-1234877093/ The second article details how due the strike the actor can consent to digital copies of themselves or not and reimbursed for their use but those digital actors are still coming.
Thank you, that was very interesting, especially the second article. It’ll be worth watching the details of how this plays out over the coming years.

Oh I know, that’s what I was refering to.
