Case chronology
Studio denies participation in or authorisation of an AI series
The studio stated that the actor had not appeared in the AI series and had not authorized third parties to synthesize their likeness. It had instructed lawyers to defend their rights and demanded removal and an end to distribution.
Research question
By denying both participation and authorisation, the actor distinguishes synthetic productions from their own performances.
