Most likely you won’t even notice some of the changes. Reasonably believable cars can already be added to films in post, so no reason why humans couldn’t be. This might not be driven only by AI, but instead on more general tech developments in vfx and such.
Really, extras have been being replaced for decades with lots of ways. You don’t need to fill a stadium with people, just use cut outs. Or CGI in an army instead of paying for a lot of people and costumes. This is the next logical step
There’s a technique called ‘tiling.’ You hire, say 100, extras and have them move as a unit from one part of the arena to another. Mix them up so people don’t see the guy in the green hat sitting next to the redheaded woman all the time.
I guess Avatar-like films are going to be the norm for awhile

You are insinuating that lotr did not hire 100000 extras for the rotk battle scenes? Preposterous!
