In a podcast interview, Robert Downey Jr. declared his intention to sue any future Marvel executives who use AI to recreate his likeness as Tony Stark. He emphasized his emotional detachment from the AI debate, though he recognizes the potential dangers of digital replicas. Downey's comments arise amid ongoing concerns from Hollywood actors about AI's impact on the industry, particularly in light of recent strikes demanding safeguards against unauthorized uses of actors' images. He also discussed his new Broadway role in 'McNeal', which touches on similar themes.
