Sam brought a real audition dilemma to the pod: do I tape as my true self, or try to guess what the casting director actually wants?
We also dive into the actor-AI panic sparked by the rise of Tilly the synthetic “actress,” and why Gab thinks it’s actually a good thing. We talk fear, job security, industry change, and why connection is the one thing AI can’t replicate.
Then we close it out with something ridiculous: a new game called “Guess That White Guy.” (lolz)
we get into:
when an audition role feels uncomfortably familiar
why vague character descriptions can mess with your head
how AI actors are showing us who’s in this for the long haul
the real reason actors have job security
a hilarious, unhinged game we may or may not regret
