On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made several claims about the BBC’s coverage of events in Gaza on Sunday.
They were false and misrepresented.
@BBCRosAtkins with BBC Verify breaks it down:
This bizarre thing happens to a small group of people when they hear AI was used in a movie: they forget how movies actually work. The Brutalist used some form of technology to help them tell a story you like. So what? Being mad because a movie used AI is like being mad because a movie used practical or digital effects. It's as if it somehow invalidates the entire creative process, as if the filmmakers just pressed a button and went home.
The reality of filmmaking is messier, harder, and more interesting than that. Movies are elaborate magic tricks, using whatever tools can help create the illusion. Digital effects, practical effects, now neural networks. They're all just different ways to make the audience believe in something that isn't there. The only difference now is that we're calling it AI instead of "digital tools."
If you are mad because "AI was used in a movie," you will get really mad when you learn about crowd simulation, background generation, automatic color grading, noise reduction, facial and body motion capture, and many other things that use scary AI to make all the things you love. Being angry about AI in films is like being angry about cameras having autofocus. It's missing the point of what makes movies work in the first place. Tools don't make movies. People do.
