Hanks has previously discussed the rise of artificial intelligence and deepfake technology in the creative industries, saying on an episode of The Adam Buxton Podcast that its now possible for him to continue acting after his death.

Anybody can now recreate themselves at any age they are by way of AI or deep fake technology. I could be hit by a bus tomorrow and thats it, but performances can go on and on and on and on, Hanks said. Outside the understanding of AI and deepfake, therell be nothing to tell you that its not me and me alone. And its going to have some degree of lifelike quality. Thats certainly an artistic challenge but its also a legal one.

The Elvis star explained that all of the guilds, all of the agencies, and all of the legal firms are currently in discussion on the legal ramifications of my face and my voice and everybody elses being our intellectual property.

Hanks added, Without a doubt people will be able to tell [that its AI], but the question is will they care? There are some people that wont care, that wont make that delineation.
