How will hyper-realistic AI affect the future of Hollywood?

from The Scoot Show with Scoot

Hollywood is freaking out after a hyper-realistic AI video of Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise fighting. It was created with a two-line prompt using a new tool from TikTok’s parent company. Studios and actors’ unions are calling it copyright theft and an existential threat to the entire film industry. If one person with a laptop can generate a blockbuster-level action scene in minutes… what happens to writers, actors, and the thousands of people who make movies for a living? Are we watching the future of entertainment or the beginning of the end for Hollywood as we know it?
