The AI-based video tool, Seedance, developed by Bytedance, is at the center of a controversy in Hollywood. A viral clip featuring AI-generated versions of famous actors Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise has prompted an immediate reaction from the Motion Picture Association. They issued their very first cease-and-desist order against an AI company.
