00:02Matthew McConaughey urged emerging entertainment talent to prepare for AI actors during a town
00:07hall at the University of Texas at Austin, according to Business Insider. He advised
00:12students to trademark their voice and image to protect their likeness and said AI in entertainment
00:17is inevitable due to financial incentives. He said moral objections alone will not stop AI
00:23because it is too profitable and productive to be reversed.
00:26McConaughey has filed eight trademark applications, including his all right, all right, all right
00:31catchphrase. He told the Wall Street Journal he aims to establish ownership with consent
00:36and attribution in an AI world. He is also an investor in Eleven Labs and is using the platform
00:42to produce a Spanish version of his newsletter. Hollywood Studios previously proposed AI replicas
00:47of actors, drawing concern from SAG AFTRA. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com.
