But would it be possible to make AI John Smith "from the start"?
Every AI John Smith characteristic would be based in a real human - unless AI John Smith is a 100% alien lifeform. That applies not only to appearance, but mannerisms, voice, accent, etc.
AI cannot create a 100% "original" human, because it will always be based on information based on real humans.
The analogy is that any text or code "created" by AI is based on learning from texts and code that were written by humans.
Unless Harisson Ford has rights on the "Indiana Jones" franchise, where would be the line for his legal claim? Could AI create a character to play his part that looked nothing like him, but still mimic the way he moved? And how close the resemblance to Harisson Ford could be? Who would judge that?
What about James Bond? So many actors have played it, and there are gestures, sentences, behaviors which are part of the character, not of the actor. How would that be dealt with?
