Actors complain that AI is taking their jobs

But the question is, how? The technology is not perfected yet. Any functional human being can tell an AI drawing when they see one, let alone on moving pictures. What are they worrying about? Do they really think we're that stupid?

      Pegg was absolutely perfect in the "blood and ice cream" trilogy. It's a shame that he had to be a woke butthole. He does know that the reason why he gets so few roles now is because he's the whiteness Hollywood seeks to replace, doesn't he?

      like the way many jobs in supermarkets and fast food restaurants have been subsumed by self-service counters, something similar will happen with things like customer service and creative media. Speaking to a human will be harder and more expensive and it's gonna cut more people out of the labour market

        The thing about fast food and supermarkets is that no technology replaced anyone. They simply got rid of people and told the customers to do it themselves. Bit like the petrol pump guys. What would the Kinoplex version be? They just give you the script and tell you to act it out yourself? Would actually be kind of fun.

These AI programs are are a mixture of a database and a LLM which is essentially a word predictor based on pre-programmed parameters. These mongs thinking an AI is anyway near outwriting a real human being is moronic. Its basically a real life ask jeeves search engine with a bit of programming trickery in there to make it appear intelligent.

        I haven't used the text AI. Image AI repeats output when the size is larger than the model was made for. There you can fix by generating the base composition of the image and then upscaling all or part of it.

        that south park thing was kinda impressive but also really shit in a lot of ways
        for one, the characters just stand there lifeless the entire time while real animators try to at least make them walk around or make expressions with their hands or something
        and the characters take turns talking with the exact same gap between sentences, like there are no long pauses or cutting off another's sentence, so the dialogue drones on and sounds artificial

        Our understanding of how the human brain works is actually pretty shitty.

Nature is so much more infinitely complex than we give it credit for. Trying to compare a search engine/word prediction program to the complexity of the human brain is an insult to nature. Absolute hubris from brainlets like you.

    Their fears are a moot point anyway as AI will kill Hollywood itself. Within a decade (two tops) there will be infinite AI-generated content. Everyone will be able to generate their own feature-length Star Wars or Indiana Jones movie with 80s Hollywood production values and Harrison Ford in his prime. If you can't be bothered to do it yourself, there'll be review websites where you can browse the most highly-rated AI-generated movies.
