The premise
Brands and parents are training models on child-influencer footage. The child cannot consent to a synthetic adult version of themselves selling products in 2040.
What AI does well here
- Train likeness models that produce on-brand stills and clips
- Generate 'aged-up' renderings for marketing ten years out
- Automate licensing and royalty splits
What AI cannot do
- Bind the future adult to deals their parent signed
- Survive Coogan-law-equivalent challenges in newer state statutes
- Restore reputation after a synthetic clip goes viral in adulthood
