But my point is that they can already replace the actor today without any ai tech. I mean that's basically how video games work that use actor's likeness (such as sports games). They take someone in and scan them, then they can make them do whatever they want without needing the actual person to act out all of the individual actions.

Replacement is just one application. What about generating entire performances? Can't do it yet, but the data will be there when they figure it out.
