I'm curious to see if the first use of this tech looks better than the current CGI we get. I always hate when they switch to an obviously digital version of people for cartoonish action sequences. Hopefully this fixes that.

I'm also curious to see how agencies react to this. To me the first easy win for both sides is to get actors agree to have AI dub their voice and likeness for different language versions of the films they make. The original actor gets paid more and the studio gets to distributed a dubbed version that doesn't need subtitles and doesn't sound dubbed, so it will be seen by way more people worldwide.
