Summary
- Filmmaker Darren Aronofsky directs an AI-generated Revolutionary War series.
- The series uses AI visuals and voice acting from union actors.
- Concerns arise over AI's impact on art and potential job displacement.
Filmmaker Darren Aronofsky has ventured into directing an AI-generated series titled 'On This Day... 1776,' focusing on the Revolutionary War and the founding fathers. The series utilizes artificial intelligence for its visuals and voice performances, though it employs SAG-AFTRA union actors. This decision has ignited apprehension within the creative community regarding the growing influence of AI in the entertainment sector.
While the series employs union talent, its reliance on AI technology is seen by some as a concerning validation. Critics fear that Aronofsky's involvement could normalize AI-generated content, potentially overshadowing ethical considerations and the economic impact on film crews and animators. The project prompts broader questions about the future of artistic creation and industry standards in the face of rapid technological advancement.
