In this brief interview, Kevin Surace predicts a future where Hollywood‑quality commercials and films are produced entirely by AI—no cameras, sound crews, lighting, or human actors are needed. He anticipates pushback from skeptics who doubt viewers will accept AI‑generated content, but counters that audiences are already consuming such media through AI influencers whose human‑like presence is often indistinguishable. The discussion highlights both the technological possibility of fully synthetic production and the emerging authenticity debate surrounding AI‑driven personalities.

You are going to see Hollywood-grade commercials shot with no cameras, no sound, no lighting, no actors. There will be films in the future and commercials and everything else that are made strictly with AI characters. And then people say to me, no, no, no, we won't want to watch those. Really? You want to talk about Shrek?
Well, they're already watching them. Like the influencers online and some of these people, like some of them claim that, oh, I'm a human, but half of them are not human and you can't tell the difference.
