Opting for CGI and AI to make movies would be an improvement over continuing to employ lunatic left wing self entitled actors.......and a hell of a lot less expensive.

Unlike Alec Baldwin, CGI and AI movies don’t kill people.

This democratization of filmmaking

Stop right there, Canada.

Maybe where you live, it’s democratization.

In the land of freedom, we call this theft.

A basic element of any model is that it requires a development dataset. For Generative AI, that is other people’s property.

Indeed, Veo 3 was trained on YouTube videos and other intellectual property.

Should we trust Google when it says “We also recognize the need for guardrails, which is why we’ve invested in robust protections that allow creators to protect their image and likeness in the AI era — something we’re committed to continuing.”

Uh, no.

I agree that Hollywood is pestilence. I get the joyful response to Hollywood getting taken down.

But property rights - along with The Holy Trinity - are the bedrock of freedom.

...actors...

If you don't use real actors, you are just watching cartoons.

There was a time when Hollywood made great movies without CGI. They just weren’t woke!
