This is how good the AI is now. Many people are who alive are now licensing their likeness to AI companies for such movies, TV series and many a times they look way better lit, produced than the physical production which also heavily use CGI. Compared the lighting, look & feel of this with things like silo series which are poorly lit, barely see anything and most of it is always in the dark and most of it is out of focus where even on a giant screen the only thing we get to see in focus is a face or an object with 90% of the screen being out of focus. This is done to hide the low quality props, low quality CGI and hide their budgetary concerns. AI has no such limits.
This also carries a huge downside. Anyone is now free to use the likeness of dead actors like sean connery who was THE james bond for majority of the life span of the 007 movies. They could even make adult movies. Before someone else does it, starts to exploit it and exploit the dead celebrities and their likeness.
solution 1: NPO by the govt
Most of it requires govt's power to enforce it, so it is a win win for the govt to get money to fund the education of the children. Government forms an NPO where they declare dead artists like Dr. Rajkumar, ambarish, vishnu vardhan as asset of a geography. Let us call it IA (Immortal Artist). Lata mangeshkar is national asset, while Dr. Rajkumar and others are assets of karnataka. So any likeness of them can be licensed from the such NPOs of such state or nation. The license is post production, per second payment. May be 1INR per second of lata mangeshkar's vocals. 1INR per second appearance of dev anand. Unless there is a fixed rule of to whom should the profit go to and where it should go to, leaving it to bureacracy will result in incompetence and corruption. So, the money shall always go to the education of girls from the schools from the birth place of the celebrity. Hugh jackman from town X in australia. After this death, any likeness to him in any content will be paid per second to the govt which then goes to the education of the girl from schools of his town.
solution 2: NPO by the pvt
If we go via this route, then there will be a lot of money minded opportunists who want to exploit this where even though it says NPO/NGO, they pay themselves such a hefty salary and bonuses that it barely reaches those who need it. So it has to be global, like UN. Where 20% of all earnings are retained for legal expenses. 20% for opex. 60% goes to the benefices.
Pricing model
Each artist's likeness should be limited to 100 minutes of exposure/usage per year and studios can bid and book them for only 1 year. The bidding ensures that hoarders dont just buy it at a flat rate or destroy the IP. This scarcity also ensures that there is no over exposure which negatively affects the artist's demand. The scarcity also allows the studios to expand their targeting of artists.
Approval model
If we let humans have a go at it who may have their own political or other moral reasons and it might leak into their decisions to allow/approve usage of an IA in a project. Lobbying, bribing might become a thing too. So, to avoid this we can have an AI which is trained once & locked forever to study an artist's selection of roles through out his life and also their public interviews while they were alive and it will score a project/movie/content from 1 to 10. 10 being the most likely possibility that the artist would have agreed to be cast in this role, 1 being the least likely to agree to do such a role. This AI is opensource & accessible to studios where they can query their project & get suggestions on artists where based on IA's history of roles they picked & why they picked, it will give a score for each artist a studio demands or suggests artists for each role with a score of 7 to 10.
Global NPO model
It should mostly consist of engineers, especially programmers who can freely run and maintain such a project. Reduced capex & opex significantly. Gradually it should include at least 1 or 2 engineers from each country especially from countries who produce more bankable artists than others. Ideally at least 1 per country is fine and when someone retires after they are x-10 where x being the average lifespan of a person in their country, the other board members can elect someone else from their country where the retiring member won't have a say in it. Each board member will suggest 1 different name, everyone else will vote, whoever gets the most vote, becomes the new member of the board.
Majority or almost all of the so called elites (eleeches) live in a private house, private security, private police, private everything. They use private schools, private everything. So they use nothing from the public (schools, police, security etc.,) and yet they pay more since their income is more. Any normal rational thinking human will ask, why am I paying for public services like security/police when I use none of it? So how to reduce that burden? May be start indoctrination that higher police funding is doing over policing to justify the cost. Their incentive system which increases only if there is a rise in crime, encourages them to oppress & exploit people, especially minorities. When well meaning people, liberal minded people see this, they of course want to do something about it. Then eleeches might want to fund such liberals who propagate defund the police.
The counter is to push it to extreme. Shut down prisons. Shut down police stations and no police.
Pro choice / Planned parenting
Most beneficiaries/users of free abortion clinic, birth control in usa, west are minorities. Minorities of color. Especially blacks & Hispanics. If you are a white person who is insecure about their population soon taking over and becoming a majority, then you would definitely want to advocate for abortions, promote abortions, even at the 9th month. You want to do this using white women as the front runners, fund such liberal well meaning white women who will carry the torch. A non racist, well meaning conservative white person might disagree with it, even though his own race might become a minority but he will be termed as racist, anti women because he is denying women's right to abort the child. Only the giver of life has the right to take the life and it is the god through women/female who creates life. So both god and mother have that right. So I myself won't look at it in legal terms but the easier way is appealing to a women's heart at large is the solution, not ban abortion.
Eleeches always create a narrative which helps them. Then fund those who fall for it and ready to take it forward.
Almost all transparency acts, departments come under politicians, government, bureaucrats who in some or the other way are incentivized to cripple it, protect their own and themselves and then slowly weaken such a process and make it toothless.
It is irrefutable fact that there is no testament to patriotism, conviction, discipline & sacrifice than being a service man in the army/navy/air force (defense) sector. One shall move something like RTI (Right To Information) departments under the defense who are authorized to release all information requested by citizens if they don't see it as a threat to national security. Who better can judge if an information is safe or not for the national security than those who can lose their lives and the lives of their friends and family if they make a wrong decision. A politician if takes a wrong decision may lose his power which can gain in the next election, a bureaucrat may lose his job but a defense personal has the highest and unique stake in nation's security. Such a transparency department should have absolute authority to request, demand and command any information from any department unless explicitly stopped by the president with a public order for that one incident, it cannot be used as a blanket shield for future queries in perpetuity.
One should start with low hanging fruits like these
A portal will be maintained where only via api (no UI, to ensure those who aren't serious about that information aren't just looking) where the following the wealth, net worth are tracked forever of the following as long as they are in those positions
members of the judiciary
elected officials (MLA, MP etc.,)
All bureaucrats who have to write
IAS/IFS/IPS etc.,
Most store their wealth in the name of their direct relatives, so not only should defense have such data about those, but also their direct blood relatives (parents, siblings, children and spouse). This enforces an unsaid rule where corrupt would rather have their relatives not join such departments or become a politician where as currently corrupts try to install one of their relative as a puppet in one of those positions to exploit power.
Pay-as-you-go pricing for API usage, the charges should be such that they are used to meet the CAPEX and OPEX of the blockchain based, auto scaling infrastructure for this. Banks, Income tax departments, PAN card departments should automatically populate their monthly data towards this api. Slowly this should move towards a system where citizens spy on government more than the government spying on people.
