“You’ll Never Guess How Much You Can Get Paid” … TL;DR: $750.
Could you AI generate a face or video or something?
So many layers of hell to this. Why is someone buying his likeness when they can generate a random person and use that instead. Also tiktok is such a shit platform it purely exists to manipulate people.
Can we move on to the next trend already please
It only gets worse from here. We need to stop.
"Early man walked away, as modern man took control
Their minds weren’t all the same, to conquer was his goal
So he built his great empire, and he slaughtered his own kind
Then he died a confused man, killed himself with his own mind"
This song always makes me think of this ai bullshit nowadays.
Who is going to want to work with an actor who has sold their likeness? People could generate ads with the actors likeness talking about how bad the end product you hired them for is. This is beyond a bad contract deal. It’s extremely damaging to their image which at a certain point is all an actor has.
you forget.
money.
My point is that long term it’s even less money for the actors than just the low upfront payment. Yes, they got some upfront, but it was a bad deal and could cost them future projects. It obviously makes sense for TikTok and I doubt the companies using the ai for ads are scrupulous enough to care what else the ai they selected is selling. I’m just saying it’s double stupid to do this. You’re not getting paid enough upfront and you’re also potentially losing jobs because of this. Not to mention contributing to ai use and decreasing the demand for actors in general.
money.
Wait until they make it into an app. “SpksprsnAI” make up to $750 just by downloading our app and scanning your face. We tell your friends about the products you love and you get paid!
I’m sure they lose money on every VHS/DVD/Stream sale as well.
What are you trying to say with this comment?
Actors have been licencing their likeness in some form or another for decades. This is just another way to sell to more people with less work at lower prices.
