I’ve shared this before, but on a podcast Greig Fraser (cinematographer for Dune, The Batman) basically said, “AI is happening, and we as artists can either embrace it and decide how to use it tastefully, or investors/producers will decide for us.”
Comment on 'The Brutalist' criticised for its use of AI

I am not a big fan of LLMs but don’t see a problem with this (or the last confected outrage about Late Night With The Devil). Banning AI in movies is going to be like attempting to put a genie back in its bottle since there are so many potential applications. Maybe indie film makers can advetise their movies as Not AI so that people who are bothered by it can seek those out.

As if one tried banning CGI in movies to protect real life specialFX geniuses.
How many movies are there now without CGI?

Exactly.
The current moral panic is trying to say: “Digital tools in filmmaking are fine – but not neural nets!” It’s so silly.
