As usual of course, anything a CEO says is nonsense so its whatever to begin with...especially if these people talk about AI.

You can make todays movies easily 50% better and still 50% cheaper.
Like, 320 Million for Electric State? You could have done that movie for probably 100 Million and it would have felt less fake.

AI should just:

Sadly there may be no way to stop this, especially if audiences line up to see 100% AI movies.

If studios find they can make money using completely computer generated movies, without actors or real creative types involved, they'll do it.

At some point in the future studios might simply churn out 100% AI movies without any actors, writers, directors, or anybody else involved apart from computer programmers.

Sadly there may be no way to stop this, especially if audiences line up to see 100% AI movies.

But that’s the thing. There’s no evidence that audiences will actually turn out and pay money to see feature length versions of these things. Or have any interest.

Watching a free 2 minute video is very different.

Imagine paying for something no one bothered to actually make.

Imagine paying for something no one bothered to actually make.

I bet all those programmers who made the AI and were subsequently laid off and replaced with it are happy.
