This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
6 hours of work, as well as access to their likeness and voice for an undetermined amount of time.
4% return in 5 mil is 200k/yr, which is roughly a safe return for low risk investing.
Hard to say no to 16k/month forever for some dopey fad that may or may not last.
Hi where do i sign up for this
Step 1: be famous
Imagine being so popular that your likeness is with more than most people's salaries. What is this world.
Wasn't their a movie about this? Everybody hates joane or something? Prepair for a churcial shitfest
I don't know who I care less about, "Meta" or "Celebrities".
Journalists who write about AI
Imagine this : AI writing celebrity gossip
Exactly.. I came here to write how can anyone be that stupid to chat with that but I realised that I'm on Lemmy so most of the people here are not sheep as on fb or even reddit.
Yep. It’s the annoying successful business model for AI that us geeks or whatever didn’t ever see coming.
I literally just had this conversation with a friend about how many viable businesses are in the current iteration of AI. They said chatting with celebrity AIs. I said what are you talking about … until I realised it’s totally be a thing and I just couldn’t see it.
I know which one I hate more.
I hope all these "celebrity" people get their data hacked and end up complaining about the deepfake porn they star in on the internet.
If you work with evil companies for insane amounts of cash, you deserve bad things to happen to you.
This is straight out of the movie “The Congress”
This won't go bad at all...
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Meta is paying one top creator as much as $5 million over two years for six hours of work in a studio to use their likeness as an AI assistant, according to The Information.
Mark Zuckerberg unveiled the AI assistants during the company's Connect event last month.
While the company has its own AI chatbot similar to ChatGPT, it also introduced 28 new ones with different personalities that use celebrities' images.
For example, Kendall Jenner's likeness is used for Billie, who is portrayed as a big sister to give users advice.
Meta has also brought onboard creators like MrBeast, the most-subscribed individual on YouTube, and the TikTok star Charli D'Amelio.
The Information reports that Meta was initially willing to pay more than $1 million to use the stars' likenesses, but shelled out more for big names.
