How does this play out? I suppose the three options are pure AI content, mixed, or pure human. At a guess the unions/guilds will do their best to nix mixed. So let’s assume the extremes.

It’ll be interesting to see if consumers are willing to watch mostly our ai generated stuff and /or pay extra to see live humans act out stuff written by humans.

The majority of people I know decide to watch a film based on what actors are in it. My mom and both my wife's parents basically will not watch a movie if they don't know any of the actors. Unless it's by accident or something, like it just happened to play on TV during the day or they were at a guests house.
