Celebrities such as James Dean can be brought back to life thanks to artificial intelligence, but it is raising troubling questions about what rights any of us have after we die.
[James] Dean has been cast as the star in a new, upcoming movie called Back to Eden.
I figured this was coming some day. Do no one remember when Budweiser made that commercial using John Wayne?
That was the day I invasion that movies could be made with dead stars. Imagine a world where you could make a Grown Ups movie and actually have Chris Farley in the film as it was attended. Or bring back John Candy.
Ethical it probably wrong but growing up I thought of this many times and wonder what it would be like.
And the technology is almost there, almost prefected to a point that say in 10 years if stay the course you won’t need to hire movie actors in the first place.
So from the perspective from the actors I would be totally against this. But as a fan of movies makes me excited.
But it isn’t bringing those people back. It’s bringing approximations of them back. AI John Candy won’t make the comedic decisions and acting choices of the real John Candy. What you love is their talent, not their physical appearance and voice.
I disagree I believe we can bring those people to life on film. Take Chris Farley for example. You take all the films and the years on Saturday Night Live. Combine that with probably 100’s of hours if not more of interviews and behind the scene footage.
Then take everything every written by him. There is apparently 90% of his voice for the original Shrek movie out there. Add that too.
Put it all into an algorithm with AI and you could probably get pretty damn close short of having the real life person.
Watch and see if they decide to push forward with this technology (and seems rhey do) we could see tons of long dead actors come back to life in new movies and film.

So you’re saying this AI knows comedy like Chris Farley knew comedy? Because I haven’t even seen an AI that can tell a good joke yet.
