Chinese streaming site iQiyi debuts AI actor 'database'
Video streaming site iQiyi — China's equivalent of Netflix — is pushing forward a controversial initiative that it says will facilitate the use of actors' likenesses in artificially generated dramas and films. More than 100 celebrities have joined the platform to connect with makers of AI-generated content interested in using their image, a senior executive told a conference in Beijing. However, a slate of Chinese actors took to social media to declare they had not or would not sign up to the "artist database," with fans decrying iQIYI's apparent move to reduce work for human actors.
