In The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien explains the fall of Gondor's civilisation as the point at which they placed more value in the dead more than the living. No-one likes to see the actors they love grow old, retire, and eventually die, but it's part of the way of things.
The point at which studios could choose to just use AI versions of established actors, it's over. A Tom Cruise who costs next to nothing, is compelled to do exactly what you say, can't talk back to you and can't be involved in a scandal? That's the point the serpent eats its tail.
