If you took a raw script and fed it to an AI, sure, you will get rubbish and I don't see that changing any time soon. However, if someone carefully choreographed the performance like a puppeteer... I think someone will still be needed to add that spark of life to performances, but I don't see that being an 'actor', chosen as much for their physical attributes and stage presence as their ability to breath life into a script. Script writers, directors, cinematographers, choreographers, and yes, perhaps even actors, keep tweaking the AI performance with details until they get it right. You already see this with animations, except with existing technology they still need voice actors and often find motion capture less cumbersome than manually animating characters.

You don't see animators or any of the countless people other people working in the entertainment industry manage to gain nearly as much fame as actors, mostly because replacing them is a lot less noticeable to the average consumer. That is what actors are facing.
