Hey, welcome to another edition!
TL;DR
In this edition, we’re diving into AI in the filmmaking industry to see what’s happening. Is it truly promising, or is it just all hype? Let’s find out!
Would you watch a movie directed by AI? |
Here's Why AI in Film is Total Garbage
Let's cut through the hype about AI taking over filmmaking because this whole thing is getting ridiculous.
Ever watched an AI try to "understand" human emotions? It's like watching a robot try to explain why people cry at weddings. Spoiler alert: it can't.
Real Art Isn't a Computer Game
The truth is, that filmmaking is not the same as creating spreadsheets or performing mathematical calculations.
We're talking about capturing raw human experiences, deep emotions, and stories that mean something. But sure, let's let some AI that learned about human feelings from Reddit make our next Oscar contender.
The "Cost-Saving" Nonsense
Studios keep babbling about how AI saves money. You know what else saves money?
Not having to reshoot scenes because an AI doesn't understand why people don't smile during funerals.
Professor Winters can talk about "leveraging technology" all day long, but let's be real - you can't "leverage" soul into a machine.
Know why great filmmakers exist?
Because filmmaking is about gut instinct, human connection, and understanding the messy reality of life.
Try explaining to an AI why a scene needs to breathe, why silence can be more powerful than dialogue, or why sometimes rules are meant to be broken.
Studios aren't pushing AI because it makes better movies.
They're doing it because it sounds cool in shareholder meetings. "Look at us, we're disrupting storytelling!" Meanwhile, the actual art of filmmaking is getting kicked to the curb.
But I guess that's not as flashy as saying "AI-powered storytelling" in your press release.
Look at what Saad said - films are "the collective work of hundreds of people." You can't replicate that collaborative magic with code.
