Hanks previously discussed AI
on 'The Adam Buxton Podcast.'.
Anybody can now recreate themselves at
any age they are by way of AI or deep fake technology. I could be hit by a bus tomorrow and that’s it, but performances can go
on and on and on and on, Tom Hanks, via 'The Adam Buxton Podcast'.
Outside the understanding of AI and deepfake, there’ll be nothing to tell you that it’s not me and me alone. And it’s going to have some degree of lifelike quality. , Tom Hanks, via 'The Adam Buxton Podcast'.
That’s certainly an artistic
challenge but it’s also a legal one, Tom Hanks, via 'The Adam Buxton Podcast'.
Hanks then pointed to “all of the guilds, all of the agencies, and all of the legal firms”... .
... that are currently discussing “the legal ramifications of my face and my voice and
everybody else’s being our intellectual property.”.
Without a doubt people will be able
to tell [that it’s AI], but the question is will
they care? There are some people that won’t
care, that won’t make that delineation, Tom Hanks, via 'The Adam Buxton Podcast'
