Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Tom Hanks says AI could see him featuring in movies long after his
death
AI is already everywhere in workplaces. (Vol.4053) It is also being
used to create figures, objects, and scenes on screens. Deepfake AI is a type
of artificial intelligence used to create convincing images, audio, and video
hoaxes. It is in fact deep learning and fake. Deepfakes transform existing
source content where one person is swapped for another. They also create
entirely original content where someone is represented doing or saying
something they didn't do or say. It has already been used in movies. For
example, Tom Hanks’s character appeared in a computer-animated Christmas
fantasy adventure movie “Polar Express” nearly two decades ago. Recently, a younger
version of the famous actor was shown in “A man called Otto.” The Oscar-winning
actor thinks now that his character and voice could appear in films even after
his death, and the audience would enjoy it even though the fake Hanks wouldn’t exactly
be the same as the real him. If the deepfake AI became an easy-to-use app, would
people use it to create a person in their desired age and appearance?
Enjoy reading about another potential of AI in the entertainment
industry.
