WARNING: micro drama casting that's actually a content mill for AI training

Applied to what looked like a normal micro drama casting on a Facebook group. Got to the "contract" stage and buried in the fine print was a clause granting the production company "perpetual, irrevocable rights to use performer's likeness, voice, and movements for the creation of synthetic media, digital doubles, and AI-generated content." They were basically paying $200/day to get training data for AI actors. The "micro drama" was just a pretext. I walked. Please read every contract carefully โ€” this is going to become more common.

This is terrifying. Can you share the exact wording of the clause? I want to know what to search for in contracts. "Synthetic media" and "digital doubles" are the red flag terms?
