Supporting Roles and Below May Use AI Actors, Director Yu Zheng Claims Real Performance Cannot Be Replaced by Technology

Recent discussions about "replacing supporting and minor roles with AI actors" have sparked heated debates on social platforms, indicating that generative AI technology is now moving beyond special effects and entering the core of character portrayal in film and television production. Prominent screenwriter Yu Zheng has publicly responded, emphasizing the irreplaceable value of real human performance. While AI actors, powered by digital generation technology, are already performing complex actions and creating unique character appearances—particularly in short-form dramas where they significantly reduce costs and shorten production cycles—their limitations are becoming increasingly clear. AI still struggles to convey emotional depth and a sense of humanity, and audiences often find it difficult to form genuine emotional connections with digital characters. This trend reflects an ongoing tension between technology and art in the industry. As Yu Zheng noted, AI may represent a temporary trend that filters out mediocre output, but true creative expression still relies on human thought and emotion. As both digital models and human performances continue to coexist, the industry must confront the challenge of balancing technological efficiency with artistic and emotional authenticity.
