What if I make my own videos with actors and/or voices are entirely imaginary? I don't have the resources to hire a videographer let alone an actor but I can write a script and use AI (and program/script things).
If I make something cool it'd be sad if no one watched it just because it didn't use real human actors and voices.
As long as you don't clone someone's voice without permission, then you didn't replace any actors imo. There's a big difference between an indie production using this tech to reach higher than they could otherwise and Disney just not wanting to pay wages.
I would argue that you could still use the voice/face of real people, as long as you add a disclaimer that it's not real people. Obviously big producers will use AI to cut costs. But the problem does not inherently lie in real actors vs AI. It lies in our capitalistic system not caring about people.
South Park has some crazy lawsuits coming, if that person has their way.
I legitimately couldn’t tell they didn’t use the real Megan Markel!
