As you know, artificial intelligence has been a hot topic of conversation in recent months. Many creative talents think about it and there are some people who are afraid of it and its implications. I definitely see how it has impacted the industry I’m in! It’s wild enough!
There’s also a lot of discussion within the film community about AI and it’s one of the things that has been a cause for concern for writers in the film industry, and it’s all part of what’s happening with the writers’ strike in course. But, according to the writer and director Guillermo del Toro, people shouldn’t be afraid of artificial intelligence, they should be afraid of stupidity. During a panel at the Annecy animation festival last week, she said:
“When people say they’re afraid of artificial intelligence, I say don’t be afraid of intelligence; be afraid of stupidity. All intelligence is artificial. Stupidity is natural. Completely, 100% natural, organic. Be afraid of stability. This is the real enemy. Referring to the studio talk, she noted, “I think when someone calls stories ‘content,’ when someone says ‘pipeline,’ they’re using sewer language.”
He makes some good points here. It is dumb people who will replace real people with real personalities and real creativity with an AI chatbot. Look, I can see AI being used as a tool, but replacing real people with it seems ridiculous. But it’s happening.
What do you think of what del Toro had to say about AI? What do you think about AI?
