Jenna Ortega, Celine Song Slam AI In Entertainment; Call For Protecting Human Creativity

Jenna Ortega and Celine Song have strongly voiced their opinions against the use of AI in films and TV shows. While Jenna hoped that people would get 'sick' of the work of AI and want to return to genuine human stories, Celina vowed to never use such tools for her work.During the jury press conference at the Marrakech Film Festival, The Wednesday actress said, "There is really charm in the human condition… As humans, we have a tendency to always, when you look back at history, take things too far. It’s very easy to be terrified. I know I am in times like this of deep uncertainty. And it kind of feels like we’ve opened up a Pandora’s Box."ALSO READ - Horrifying To Me: James Cameron Rejects Idea Of AI Replacing Actors As Tilly Norwood Sparks Industry

BacklashOrtega added, "I don’t want to assume for the audience, but I would hope it gets to a point where it becomes some sort of mental junk food, AI and looking at the screen, and then suddenly we all feel sick, and we don’t know why, and then that one independent filmmaker in their backyard comes out with something, and it releases this new excitement again."Past Lives director Celine Song said she agreed with Guillermo del Toro after the filmmaker recently vowed not to use AI in his work. She said, “To quote Guillermo del Toro, who will be here at this festival, AI… the way that it is completely destroyed the planet… the way that it is completely colonising our minds in the way that we encounter images and sound, I’m very concerned about it."“The number one thing that we’re here to defend as artists is humanity… We're here not to think about makes human life easy, what makes it convenient, but what it’s like to actually live," Song added.(With inputs from IANS)
