In a fictional world that was probably created by AI, John Connor rolls up in his grave. On the BOZ into the future Podcast, Terminator The director and former StaUsch Ai critic James Cameron not only explains his new support from AI, but also says that it could be an essential tool if filmmakers continue to want to make visually daring films like The dune Films in the future.
On the podcast, the three-time Oscar winner explains that he has changed his attitude towards AI to be part of the filmmaking process for the same reason that almost everyone can get his opinion to everything: money. No, he was not paid to change his opinion (as far as we know), but he fulfilled the financial burden Avatar Series and Denis Villeneuve's dune Films. According to him, production costs have to fall if we want to continue such films, and the AI could be the way to do this.
“If we continue to see the kind of films that I always loved and that I like to do and that I will see – to see – to see –dunePresent Dune: Part twoOr one of my films or large effects that come with CG-strict films-we have to find out how to reduce the costs in half. ”
He made sure that, in his view, the AI should not replace people's jobs, but accelerate them. Ki should “double your speed for a certain recording, so that your cadence is faster and your throughput cycle is faster and can continue and do other cool things and then other cool things”. It seems that he sees AI in films as similar to the computer that replaces the typewriter instead of replacing sensitive killing machines that replace the human species.
As practical as it may be, it still sounds like it was from Bizzarro World to remember that Cameron gave a threatening warning of AI Back in 2023 When he said CTV News, “I warned you in 1984 and didn't listen to her.” To find the AI that is so terrible that he refers his film from 1984 The TerminatorIts act of a AI is in motion that tries to wipe out humanity if the warning of its dangers does not sound like an attitude that can only be relaxed in less than two years.
Nevertheless, he has spent time since then to study the functioning of AI, which may have contributed to the postponement of his views. On the BOZ into the future Podcast he discussed to take the time to learn the nuances of the AI space to find a way to use his redeemable aspects to continue to push filmmaking. “The goal was to understand the space and understand what the developer comes to mind,” he said. “What are you aiming for? What is your development cycle? How much resources do you have to get involved in creating a new model that does a specially built thing, and my goal was to integrate it into a VFX workflow.”
To his honor, he never said that AI should write films after he said in 2023: “I personally do not think that a disembodied mind that only occurs again what other embodied heads said – roughly the life that they had, about lies about lies, about fear, mortality – and everything that brings in an audience in an audience. board In September in September to bring KI functions to future filmmakers. With Cameron on board, it could only be a matter of time for Hollywood to find ways to integrate AI without killing all of us.
