“ motion picture will be one of the last thing — if everything gets replaced — to be put back by AI , ” said Affleck during anonstage interview with CNBClast hebdomad . “ AI can write you an first-class imitative verse that go Elizabethan ; it can not write you Shakespeare . ”
Affleck , who runs a movie studio apartment with Matt Damon now , seems to have a comely compass on how AI run , bid a barebones definition of transformer architectures at one gunpoint in the audience . He ’s surprisingly optimistic regarding AI ’s impact on the plastic film industry , saying it may in reality create more work for thespian and screenwriters .
