Steven Spielberg has shared his thoughts on the use of AI in the entertainment business.
The legendary director recently appeared in Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson imo Podcast, where he stressed that AI cannot replace the human “soul” in filmmaking.
Spielberg said, “I don’t like AI where it takes up a space or is an empty chair at the writer’s desk.” “I’m not willing to give alternatives, you know, because I don’t really believe in emotion. I don’t believe there’s any alternative to soul.”
He added, “I don’t think it’s an algorithm that’s worth inventing… A computer that thinks it feels more than we feel is anathema to the way I was raised and how I will practice my trade of producing and directing in the future.”
jaws The director said he supports AI for practical tasks but not for creative decisions or storytelling.
He said, “Don’t tell me how to write my dialogue for this character. Don’t tell me where the camera has to go. And don’t even tell me what the set should look like, unless the AI ​​is just a tool in the production designer’s big tool chest.”
Steven said, “Use AI as a tool, but don’t use AI as the last word on anything creative. That’s where I draw the line.”
