Abhishek Bachchan on AI

During a candid session on AI, Abhishek Bachchan shared his views on artificial intelligence and its impact on the creative field. He said, “AI scares me. It should scare every actor. In the creative field, AI is going to revolutionise a lot of stuff. If not used responsibly, it can be detrimental for actors. Behind the scenes, it can be beneficial for animation, special effects and more. It is going to reduce a lot of working hours that we spend, and your budget may come down.” “From a creative perspective, I have seen multiple products that are AI-generated. They are wonderful, but there's no soul. There's an imperfection to humanity,” Abhishek added.

Abhishek Bachchan also confessed that he is not comfortable with AI. He stated, “I think there's going to be a lot of disruption in the medical and legal fields, especially with AI. As far as the creative and films are concerned, I am going to be off the fence about whether it is going to be beneficial or not. I don't have a complete grasp of the AI landscape, so I am not very comfortable with it. I learn and read a lot about it.”
