    Someone help me out please. Who was the 90s sci-fi author who predicted actors would go away and all movies would be made using cgi /ai? She had characters in the book, watching movies starring Humphrey Bogart and John Wayne, as detectives solving crimes (and so on). She also predicted “ractors”, people who act in front of a camera, so a computer can use their motion and expressions to animate a character on screen in real time.

    My feeble brain, I swear… In any case, thanks to her, knew this day was coming. Gonna be a wild ride though.
