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 would never see a comment like that on Reddit unless 800 bots upvoted it.

Hopefully Reddit is next. World news, technology, and pretty much every big name subreddit could use a shutdown. I get wayyyy more replies on Lemmy than I ever did on “active” reddit posts with supposedly 4k comments. It got to the point that I would be surprised anytime someone replied to me.
