“Dennis Quaid: AI Can’t Replace Human Emotion, That’s What Actors Bring”

By Milcah Tanimu

In a recent interview with Fox News Digital, Dennis Quaid shared his perspective on artificial intelligence (AI), emphasizing its potential as a “great tool” while highlighting its limitations in replicating human emotions.

Quaid expressed his belief that AI lacks proficiency in understanding human emotions and suggested that it may never achieve this capability. He emphasized the unique contribution that actors make by infusing emotions into their performances, a quality that sets humans apart from AI.

While acknowledging questions and concerns surrounding AI, Quaid remained optimistic about its utility across various aspects of life, including the film industry.

The discussion around AI has been a focal point in Hollywood, particularly during strikes by actors and writers’ unions. Negotiations led to agreements that provide protections for performers against the creation of “digital replicas” without their consent.

Recent legislative developments, such as the “ELVIS Act” in Tennessee, aim to safeguard artists’ likeness, voice, and image from unauthorized use by technology. The bipartisan bill, which received unanimous support in the state General Assembly, establishes civil actions against those who misuse individuals’ voice or likeness without permission.

Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, SAG-AFTRA’s national executive director, praised the passage of the ELVIS Act, highlighting its significance in protecting artists’ rights in the face of advancing technology. He expressed hope that such legislation would serve as a model for policymakers nationwide and underscored SAG-AFTRA’s commitment to safeguarding members’ images, voices, and likenesses from exploitation by AI.
