Former Reddit CEO Urges Actors to Use AI

Yishan Wong, who founded Terraformation and previously led Reddit, addressed actors concerned about AI replacing their roles. He argued that AI tools are available to everyone, not just studios, allowing performers to create entire films themselves and potentially replicate employer functions. The comments responded to reports of micro-drama actors whose performances were replicated without consent by AI doppelgangers. Other participants noted that many actors prefer acting over directing, producing, or generating images, highlighting differing views on how performers might adapt to the technology.
