The Kilmer estate is signing off on it because they feel it's an important film Val wanted to contribute to. Doesn't make it any less gross for me, but at least there's some oversight to his image I guess.

That just means someone is getting paid and doesn't give a fuck about Val Kilmer

Then they should have insisted that they mupify his corpse

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
