I see nothing of this act that restricts the applicability of so broad a definition of "deep-fake" so as not to cover the activities of Hollywood, specifically the CGI mapping of actors onto body doubles such as that performed in "The Crow" (1994).
Yet another deeply troubling knee-jerk reaction of an act that promises to catch "just the bad".
- cwkoss 8y agoConversely, I think that we may soon need regulation around Hollywood's right to digitally reincarnate dead actors for use in their commercial film productions. The idea of Universal CGI'ing George Carlin into saying politically-tinged speech he would disagree with would be a travesty. And I'm not sure how that would be prevented, save his estate successfully suing Universal.
