AI In Hollywood: Saying Yes To Utility AI – And No To Generative AI

www.forbes.com: Hollywood has become one of the loudest voices of resistance to artificial intelligence, and for good reason. In an industry built on authorship, credit and creative control, generative AI has raised fundamental questions about who owns a performance, a story, or even a cut. But behind the headlines and strikes, a quieter shift toward utility AI in Hollywood is underway.

I think this article puts AI in Hollywood as a pretty good definition of what it should be. At this point I feel we are too far gone to say that AI shouldn't be in the arts or doesn't have a place I think no matter your opinions of AI or what you believe of AI it is here it is real and there's no really getting rid of it anymore as now now it has been introduced to the world. I really enjoyed what he had to say about we welcome AI to help and utility wise but we are not welcoming AI to guide artistically or for it to generate any of its own art. I believe that it's gonna be a while until we can get a clear balance of AI in this world as it is so new I think it's gonna just take some time for it to settle and for it to find its place where it can be helpful and not destructive.
