California should then ban ai contracts longer than 5 years or something like that to not take advantage of unknown actors desperate for a job. It's pretty straightforward.The California state Senate has passed a law that requires consent for the use of dead performers' likenesses for AIcreated digital replicas. Short Project Agreement. I suggest that the eventual strike settlement forbid studios from buying the rights to AI likenesses for more than a single film or project. If consent is not obtained before death, the studios still need "an authorized representative or the Union" to approve it. In some instances, you will need to obtain a separate contract or consent to insert an actor into a new scene or to change their dialog. Use of artificial intelligence was a major point of contention in the latest SAG contract. It has been happening for a long time. Only the company headquarters remain in "Hollywood".
