Rise of AI performers triggers concerns about human actors_我的网站

The Girl Who Was FiredA virtual AI actress has gathered massive followers and stirred widespread heated debate on Chinese social media - unlike conventional celebrities, this breakout star is entirely artificially generated.
Fang Taozi, an AI-generated character who stars in the hit AI short drama series The Girl Who Was Fired, has posted lifestyle vlogs, launched social media accounts, shared her breakfasts, workouts and pets, landed brand deals and has a fanbase.
Since the drama debuted on short video platform Douyin on June 12, it has accumulated 200 million views. Fang's Douyin account has attracted more than 400,000 followers.
Fans interact with her as if she were a real celebrity, creating fan edits, discussing fictional relationships and building a community around her imagined life.
This raises a question that has become increasingly urgent for the entertainment industry: Does Fang Taozi represent the first generation of AI celebrities? The answer depends on how "celebrity" is defined, said Zhang Peng, a cultural researcher and associate professor at Nanjing Normal University, in an interview.
If celebrity status is measured by public attention, emotional connection and commercial value, Fang appears to meet many of the criteria. She has fans, a personal brand and even advertising opportunities.
Whether AI can truly become stars depends not on the technology itself, but on their ability to forge genuine emotional connections with audiences and sustain their appeal over time, added Zhang.
However, Shi Wenxue, a Beijing-based cultural critic, argues that AI stars have indeed emerged, but they should be viewed as part of the broader lineage of virtual idols.
From the 1958 US virtual musical group Alvin and the Chipmunks to Hatsune Miku, Luo Tianyi and the hyper-realistic digital human Liu Yexi, virtual performers have existed in various forms for decades.
From the perspective of how she is created, Fang Taozi represents a technological advance. Her emergence is largely a product of the current economic environment of the film and television industry.
The rise of AI performers has also triggered concerns among human actors, especially those working in smaller productions.
Human performers bring personal experience, emotional interpretation and unpredictability - qualities that remain difficult to reproduce. But for industries that require large volumes of affordable content, AI characters offer obvious advantages: They do not age, can work continuously and can be customized for different audiences.
AI short dramas are cheaper, faster and free from the risks associated with human performers, raising concerns over the future of lower-level entertainment jobs in areas such as short dramas, advertising, background acting and voice work, said Zhang.
In Shi's view, beneath the debate lies a familiar tension: technological efficiency versus the threat of displacement for human workers.
The question is not whether AI will completely replace actors, but which parts of acting and entertainment can be automated, he noted.
Rather than presenting an AI figure only as a digital image, Chinese platforms appear to be building complete entertainment ecosystems around AI characters, including dramas, social accounts, fan interactions and commercial partnerships.
China's AI stars have grown out of the audience's desire for emotional companionship, while Hollywood's AI experiments have been shaped by industry battles over efficiency and costs, noted Zhang.
According to Shi, Fang Taozi's sudden popularity is, in many ways, a reflection of audience psychology. Whether they are moviegoers, fans or casual viewers, audiences have grown weary of formulaic content, scripted fan service, predictable performances and fragile celebrity personas. An idol like Fang Taozi offers an alternative: She cannot be involved in scandals, play diva or break character, and her persona can be adjusted to meet audience demands. But the model also comes with risks, particularly the limitations of its creators and the potential for excessive commercialization.

中新都高度重视两国关系,在双方的共同努力下,两国关系长期保持积极互惠、健康稳定发展。

C | 建交50多年来,特别是双边关系提升为全面战略伙伴关系10年来,两国坚持相互尊重、彼此包容、聚焦合作、造福人民,携手推动两国在各领域的交流与合作均取得长足进展,给两国和两国人民带来切实好处。两国高层交往保持积极势头,即使是在疫情期间也未间断;务实合作特别是经贸合作迅猛发展;人文交流成为双边关系重要支柱;两国也在国际和地区问题上长期保持沟通合作。

诚然,中新两国国情、历史文化、发展阶段、社会制度不同,在一些问题的看法上可能会有所不同,但两国既没有历史恩怨,也没有现实利益冲突,双方的共识和共同利益远超分歧。虽然国际环境和两国各自国内都发生重要变化,但中方认为两国利益互补的本质以及良好的合作意愿依然是双边关系的主流。

D | 对中方来讲,我们对发展中新关系的承诺是明确的、坚定的,愿继续视新西兰为好朋友和重要合作伙伴。

E | 对于双方之间的分歧,中方愿继续与新方通过建设性对话妥善处理,而不是搞“麦克风外交”。两国关系迄今取得的进展是双方共同努力的结果,来之不易,值得双方共同珍惜。两国关系要保持健康稳定的发展,同样不取决于中方一方,同样需要双方的共同努力。

F | 希望并相信新方可以同中方相向而行,为保持双边关系持续稳定发展,继续造福两国人民一道做出努力。
台湾问题、涉港、涉疆、涉藏问题都是中国内政,不容任何外部势力干预。

G | 如今的世界已进入推动平等有序的多极化和普惠包容的经济全球化的时代,如果有人还抱着过去时代的旧梦对中国的内部事务指手画脚,只会以失败告终,搬起石头砸自己的脚。
没有人比中国更关心台海局势和平稳定,我们会继续尽最大努力实现国家和平统一。

H | 台湾当局在外部势力支持下,违背一个中国原则和“九二共识”,不断拓展所谓“国际空间”,大搞“台独”分裂活动,这是对和平统一的最大破坏,也是对台海和平稳定的最大威胁。

I | 中方希望包括新西兰在内的国际社会成员继续坚定支持一个中国原则,反对“台独”,为维护台海和平稳定发挥积极作用,而非相反。
当前中国新疆和西藏社会稳定、经济发展、民族团结、宗教和谐、人民安居乐业,各民族各项权利得到有力保障,中国人权事业的发展成就任何不带偏见的人都有目共睹。但有些人对此视而不见,打着人权幌子污蔑或抹黑中国新疆、西藏的人权状况,甚至企图利用这些问题破坏中国社会发展稳定甚至是主权和领土完整,中方对此坚决反对。我们奉劝这些人尊重事实,放下偏见,停止以人权之名行损害中国的主权以及中国人民人权之实。
香港早已回归祖国,香港是中国的香港。中国全面准确贯彻“一国两制”的决心坚定不移,维护香港稳定繁荣的决心坚定不移,捍卫中国主权和安全的决心坚定不移。制定香港国安法、完成基本法第23条立法进一步健全了香港特区维护国家安全的法律制度和执行机制,香港正从由乱到治走向由治及兴,各方对此有目共睹,有关措施和立法得到香港市民热烈拥护,也符合各方利益。
南海本无事,别有用心者自扰之。一直以来,南海航行自由没有任何问题,中方一贯尊重并支持各国依据国际法在南海享有的航行和飞越自由。近期菲方倚仗外部力量的支持,背信弃义、一再挑衅,这是导致海上局势紧张的根源。关于海上争端,中方一直保持高度克制,主张本着睦邻友好精神,尊重历史和法理事实,寻求各自均可接受的解决方案。希望域外国家切实尊重地区国家维护和平稳定的努力,不挑事生非、选边站队,停止利用涉海问题挑拨地区国家关系、制造阵营对抗。
中国是网络攻击的主要受害者之一,一贯坚决反对并依法打击任何形式的网络攻击,主张各国通过对话与合作共同应对。

J | 同时,网络攻击溯源问题高度复杂敏感,在调查和定性网络事件时,应有充分客观证据,而不是在没有事实依据的情况下污蔑抹黑他国,更不应将网络安全问题政治化、武器化。

K |
中方同太平洋岛国有着长期的相互尊重、共同发展的关系。中方在“四个尊重”基础上,在南南合作框架下,向岛国提供力所能及的真诚援助,目的是帮助岛国消除贫困、应对气候变化等突出挑战、实现共同发展。

L | 中国在南太没有不可告人的议程,更没有任何地缘军事目的,无意同任何国家开展地缘竞争。同时,我们不接受别国毫无根据的指责,反对别国干扰破坏中方与岛国的正常合作。我们并愿在相互尊重的基础上同各方保持沟通、开展合作,共同回应岛国发展诉求。
与一些国家在国际热点问题上火上浇油、挑动对立与冲突的做法不同,中国在国际和地区问题上一贯采取负责任、有担当的态度,坚持劝和促谈立场,坚定维护以联合国为核心的国际体系和以国际法为基础的国际秩序,以及以各国共同制定的联合国宪章宗旨和原则为基础的国际关系基本准则,主张各国通过对话谈判解决分歧与争端。面对复杂国际局势和全球共同挑战,中方提出三大全球倡议,深刻阐述积极应对全球性挑战的中国主张、中国方案。

M | 全球发展倡议发出了新时代聚焦发展、重振合作的时代强音;全球文明倡议倡导尊重世界文明多样性和弘扬全人类共同价值;全球安全倡议倡导以共赢思维应对各种传统安全和非传统安全风险挑战,走出一条对话而不对抗、结伴而不结盟、共赢而非零和的新型安全之路。中国的立场得到了国际社会绝大多数成员的普遍认可和支持。中方希望新方摒弃偏见,秉持正确对华认知,同中方一道推动建设持久和平、普遍安全的美好世界。
今年是中新建立全面战略伙伴关系10周年。

N | 不久前,中共中央政治局委员、外交部长王毅成功访新,两国并期待年内进一步高层交往。中方期待与新方共同努力,确保高层交往取得成功,共同打造全面战略伙伴关系升级版,更好造福两国和两国人民。中方期待新方与中方一道为此做出自身积极努力。
