As the technology improves, it will become disruptive and enable average people to join the ranks of Hollywood actors, directors, music producers, and vocalists. The future isn't A-list celebrities and grammy winners, it's people like you and me.
Just my two cents, but acting is not as simple as wearing someone's face. If deepfakes make me look like an A-list actor, that alone will not get me a lead role in a big budget movie. I would still require acting skills.
- echelon 6y agoDo you know how many skilled, under-appreciated actors there are in the world? The economics of production create limited head room at the top. You'd be shocked how many talented actors, directors, and writers there are that go undiscovered and under-utilized.

- echelon 6y agoMore or less bingo. It might be a few decades, but this is where we're headed. And I'd rank this as more certain and profitable than self-driving cars. I don't think Disney will keep pace. This trend will cannibalize their IP and this level of tech competence isn't in their DNA.
