Listen I’m mad at grandpa and his AI bullshit too but you simply cannot talk about Martin Scorsese as just a “competent filmmaker”
You sound absurd. Just really enough is enough.
Scorsese is pro-AI for the same reason so many middle aged and older people in creative industries are, and the same reason all those college administrators we saw getting booed were: they are being lied to about something they don’t really understand by enthusiastic rich people.
I like Scorsese but why is everyone talking about him like he's Ingmar Bergman... he's a very competent filmmaker but not singular and clearly not infallible
Martin Scorsese is now a partner and advisor for a generative AI startup
He says he's using AI during preproduction to help storyboard projects
“I’m interested in the intersection of technology and storytelling, and seeing how that can push the bounds of creativity to create deeper and richer experiences for audiences ... cinema is a young medium ... we have to be open to how it can evolve"
