I think Cameo comes at a weird time in human history, where media is so widely distributed/consumed that the number of somewhat-famous people is enough that it has driven down the cost of getting a "celebrity" to do something specifically for you, but is before the adoption of deepfakes that could produce this type of content at almost zero cost (with celebrities that may no longer be alive).


Deepfakes of dead celebrities at almost zero cost? Surely the estates of said celebrities have (or will lobby to obtain) the rights to their likenesses?
