I have generated videos with me in them and it's a very weird feeling. Actually getting surprised by them in an ad would be brutally unpleasant. They will never do this.
That being said, they will absolutely put people that reassemble us. So personalized ad with someone that has the same hair color, skin color, height, facial structure and age, wearing about the same kind of clothes we usually do.
I'm sure that was autocorrect, but it feels awfully portentous.
I surprised you think they will "never do this". They will have some study done by an entity closely connected to an AI firm that affirms that "this makes products X amount more likely to sell!"
Whether it is true or not will be irrelevant. They will do it.
Probably run some GSA algorithm to make a version of you that could be a long-lost half-sibling you inexplicably want to fuck
You say that as if it's a bad thing
