  1. Considering the snobs, woke, entitled, abusive, overrated, overpaid, corrupt ppl in hollywood today… I'll join the AI Revolution baby. No luddite here, bring it on… đŸ’ŻđŸ˜ŽđŸ˜‡đŸ‘ŒđŸ»

  2. As soon as I can start generating my own movies, I will stop watching Hollywood-made movies! A small piece of advice to all actors: start doing theater, it will never die!

  3. Visual effects are done in south east Asia
..not in Hollywood
..writers are who knows where since they can write wherever they want
..the biggest studios in the world are in Prague, Madrid, London and New Zealand
.in Gower street there’s a sign that reads Paramount pictures, but they have no studios there. Fox in in Century city, YouTube in Beverly Hills, so then again, who’s left in Hollywood, aside from the myth?

  4. Hollywood? Hmmm, what exactly do you mean by Hollywood? Because the main studios are in Los Gatos, New York and Madrid. And regarding shooting
.who’s shooting on LA? Nobody, all productions are abroad
..so when you say Hollywood, you might wanna think twice
..Hollywood is just a rotten neighborhood between the hills and downtown
..not even NBC is in Hollywood
..the Rock is in NY and the LA studios are in Burbank and Century City
..again then, what do you mean when you say Hollywood?

  5. One of the big benefits is that is you can use an AI actor. Smaller companies with more passion could produce some amazing movies at a fraction of the cost.

  6. Old jobs go, new jobs come. People who used to shoe horses were against cars. There use to be people who lite the lamps at night in the city. So many more examples. So yes some jobs may go.

  7. When the actors forced the studios not to use AI they signed their death warrants. I believe AI will be used to make movies, TV shows, commercials and other content in the future and if the Hollywood studios that have agreed not to use AI don't use it then other studios, various content creators, and upstart companies will begin to use it and reap the benefits while the major studios will suffer and the actors they employ will suffer.

  8. forget Hollywood how about the fact that you can produce entirely new products which then can be manufactured based off people's preferences. video generation and image generation alone can change the entire world when it comes to business. especially if the AI is trained on things like engineering coding and architecture designs and 3d scans of working components or blueprints or schematics. you then could create functional creations using the image generator which then can be made into function products

  9. Radio, TV, Internet
 all once perceived as threats to Hollywood. Now AI. AI will be absorbed into the SFX and graphics departments. AI will regurgitate a script, but a WRITER will be needed to “clean it up”. AI generated actors will simply be categorized as “animation”. Hollywood will NEVER die.

  10. It might make the Hollywood guilds feel better that they've put in place 'guardrails' for some aspects of film production… But what's stopping the indie/low budget scene from going haywire with these AI tools once they become more advanced and commercially available. What good is protecting Hollywood actors, writers, etc. when non-Hollywood productions could just go the AI route and make films for vastly smaller amounts of money? Once the studios catch on to that, I'm not sure what the guilds will be able to do. Additionally, who is really getting left behind here? Because auteur filmmakers will still have their vision and creativity. I very much doubt many other directors could have made Dune Part 2 the way it is, whether they had AI tools or not. The ones really in danger are the mediocre or subpar producers and their like.

  11. So the actors and writers get protection but the visual artists who worked tirelessly for decades to get hollywood where it is today get kicked out? This doesn't seem right, where is their guild/union?

  12. It's hilarious to see these news reporters talking about this from an outsiders perspective, lol. They face the camera a certain way and only do certain kind of gestures mostly in a medium shot facing us. They are the easiest to replace.

  13. Most people are scared of AI but what if it turns out that AI can be our BFF. Most of us deep down know how dangerous and untrustworthy most humans are! So what if the AI was genuinely caring, trustworthy, ethical, knowledgeable and without deceit and ulterior motives. They could be programmed to understand humanities strengths and flaws . Wouldn't they make awesome friends and advisors?
