>Actors will license their appearance, voice, and mannerisms to these new media projects

Very few actors have an appearance or a voice worth a lot in licenses. That's like the top 1% of actors, if that.

I think if done right, humans could also end up getting emotionally attached to 100% AI generated characters, not just famous celebrities.

Sure, but I'd bet that 1% of actors (of the total pool of SAG on-screen talent membership?) comprise 75%+ of branding/name recognition for consumers.

So the appearance licenses for these 1% are valuable in Stage 1 of the takeover.

The rest are just forgotten collateral damage. Hollywood is full of 'em.
