AI may affect the jobs of stunt performers in movies. It could be a cost reduction move on the part of the studios. Computer-generated background figures have been used to reduce the number of actors needed for battle scenes.

The rise of AI means cheaper and more powerful techniques. The car chases and shoot outs could become more exciting without the use of those pesky but expensive stunt men.

Stunts could be seen right from silent movies to the latest Tom Cruise starrer Mission Impossible. Such stunts could now shrink since technology is doing the work faster and better.

Studios do body scans of stunt men without explaining how and when these images will be used. There is a possibility of not having 10 people where they could be added later through special effects and AI.

AI could reach a stage where it generates photorealistic footage like high speed crashes on a director’s instruction.
