People aren't going to watch AI.

Edison did everything he could to keep actor's names and faces out of his early films. He knew as soon as there were recognizable actors in film, they would absolutely dominate the medium the same way they absolutely dominated stage.

No one is going to watch "AI football player" sell you FanDuel. They're going to watch Tom Brady. Tom Brady is going to cost you $1.5m so why are you fiddlefucking around with a bunch of bullshit AI anything? Set aside the fact that you can't - SAG struck for four months to make sure that every human shown in a Hollywood movie or TV show is an actual human making an actual $125 a day.

Every dumb shit on reality television is making at least $125 a day because that's the contract. Every dumb shit behind the camera (raises hand) is making a fuckton more than that because that's the contract. That contract says "no AI, not anywhere, not ever." So sure. You can watch Skibidi Toilet. But out here in the real world you're going to watch humans filmed by humans.

Your argument boils down to a basic lack of comprehension of an entire industry.
