Where it is, sure. Where it will be in 5 years he has no clue. As doesn't anyone else. Everything he speculated it will do in the future is already possible right now. Just maybe not wide spread commercially.
I think people seriously underestimate just how smart this guy is . Even if he is just repeating what he’s learnt from elsewhere to articulate these thoughts coherently at a stretch without a break … it’s impressive
He's paid hundreds of millions as an actor, of course he can effectively convey the English language. With that being said he's a smug, pretentious dope.
It is interesting his understanding of current capabilities, and even trajectories like episodes on demand. But he is 100% wrong in thinking that AI won't be able to produce entire high-quality productions with "taste." This will arise from agentic capabilities plus a "generalized git"-like version control system.
@@ibgib The idea and discussion of making your own episodes and content is as old as ChatGPT itself. Everything he's talking about that "will be" basically already is. Or can be once it's implemented commercially. But what will be possible in 5 years, he or even Sam Altman have no idea. And it's almost guaranteed to be speculation and be wrong.
So many people are in denial. I get it. It's going to take your job. But to say your job is so precious that AI could never touch it, is so shortsighted. It could be argued that 99.999% of what humans come up with out of their mind is literally a reprocessed combination of everything they've ever seen or learned. Except AI will have access to ALL of the information and can process it 10's of Millions of times faster than your brain can per second. Every second.
@@whereisjayne Dude, it's not even clear we'll be able to generate enough energy to make something like that happen. Regardless, AI isn't going to take actors' jobs. No one wants to watch fake people act. It'd be like watching fake people play football. It only has meaning because actual people are doing it. It might take voice actors' jobs in animation, but I wouldn't want to see "There Will Be Blood" is some fake dude was playing Daniel Plainview.
The question may not be if AI can get to the quality of the best, but more so if (commercially) people care. Are people mostly consuming high quality content? Are people loving Shakespeare?
For me, AI is an augmentation of my skills (I work for a big corporation, not as an artist). At work, I make fewer mistakes, work faster and I am happier - I have more time for hobbies , but AI alone, without human guidance, is useless at the moment.
We're pretty far from AI being able to make an entire coherent film and even if it could, AI has never lived a life as a human being. Ultimately that is where the inspiration for storytelling comes from. AI doesn't even know what an ice-cream Sunday tastes like. A LLM will tell you that ice-cream is sweet but it doesn't KNOW what that means because it cannot taste. How is it going to write a moving and accurate screenplay about what it's like to get divorced or have your heart broken for example? The best stories and performances are still going to be made by people for a long time to come. The AI will be a tool. I think Affleck is right. That doesn't mean that people won't try to have it spit out garbage for a quick buck.
I am picturing the park bench scene of Good Will Hunting where Robin Williams is schooling Matt Damon on the difference between book knowledge vs real life experiences, except now Ben Affleck is Robin and AI LLMs are Matt
There are "homomorphisms" of experience that enable understanding between two experiential frameworks. For example, just because someone born without sight has never seen a rainbow, does not mean they haven't experienced a beautiful gradient of senses.
CoPilot, take what Ben Affleck just said, and rewrite it in the tone of Shakespeare: A: Alas, 'tis not possible now. B: But shall it be so in times to come? C: Highly unlikely, I fear. Movies, methinks, shall be the last bastion, should all else be supplanted by the artifice of AI. This contrivance may craft verse that echoes the Elizabethan tongue, yet it cannot conjure the genius of Shakespeare himself. The essence of two or three actors in a chamber, and the discerning taste to weave their craft, eludes the grasp of AI, and I wager it shall for a considerable span. What AI may achieve is to ease the burdensome toil of filmmaking, lowering costs and granting voice to many who yearn to tell their tales, akin to those who aspire to create a "Good Will Hunting." AI, at best, is a craftsman-learning by imitation, observing the techniques of others. Thus, it operates, a vast library of meanings, yet it creates naught new. A craftsman knows the art of labor; true art lies in knowing when to cease. This knowledge of restraint, I fear, shall vex AI, for it lacks taste and consistency. In the realm of generative video, AI shall perform certain tasks with greater meaning, yet I would not wish to dwell in the visual effects trade, for it faces dire straits. What once cost a fortune shall soon be but a pittance, and perhaps it need not require a thousand souls to render a scene. Yet, fear not, for it shan't replace the human spirit in filmmaking. It may enhance backgrounds, alter hues, and mend errors. Imagine, two seasons of "House of the Dragon" in a single year! In the grand tapestry of economics, where oligopolies vie, one might expect an increase in productions, allowing for more tales to unfold. In time, AI may grant thee the power to request thine own episode, saying, "I shall pay thirty dollars for a tale where Kendall seizes the company and doth embark on an affair with Stuey." It may be a tad janky, yet it shall know the actors and remix their essence. Thus, I envision AI as a new stream of revenue, akin to the DVD's former glory, which once siphoned a portion of the filmmaking economy. And what if folk desire to craft brief videos, donning the guise of Avengers? Just as one could procure an Iron Man costume, so too shall they acquire an Iron Man pack, transforming into heroes on the stage of Twitch. Such is the future that awaits!
Well, by the coments, people get used to watch bad movies, so AI movies is already ok for them. The "Eating bugs is good" thing will happen very easily.
I don’t often align with Ben’s intellectual positions on larger topics, but I have to admit he makes some compelling observations here. It’s clear he has thought the subject through in significant detail, and I hope he’s right. For anyone working in a creative industry, the rapidly shifting landscape can feel both daunting and unpredictable, demanding an equally swift capacity to adapt. That said, there’s an enduring truth that feels worth emphasizing, even if it may seem irrelevant to some: the greatest artists throughout history have often created not because they were recognized or rewarded, but because they had to. Kafka had to write. Van Gogh had to paint. Vivian Maier had to capture images of the world she existed in. What makes these examples particularly poignant is that none of them experienced widespread recognition during their lifetimes. Yet their work endures, not because of its commercial value, but because it sprang from a deep, intrinsic need for expression. AI, for all its impressive capabilities, can never replicate the joy, the cathartic release, or the deeply personal fulfillment of true artistic creation. Artists will continue to express their innermost emotions, whether celebrated, overlooked, or somewhere in between. While AI may reshape industries and redefine how art is produced or consumed, it cannot silence the human drive to create. (Full disclosure: I used AI to write this. I’m no Spinoza, but I’m okay with that.)
I respect Ben Affleck’s opinion about AI and its impact on the movie industry. However, Visual effects (VFX) is a matter of cost AND taste so unless filmmakers are satisfied with janky AI VFX only for the sake of saving a buck, it’s still going to take a long while till AI can provide what VFX artists can
Incredibly more intelligent than I expected. I am pleasantly surprised with how he put this. Nevertheless I do think the issue of AI and art goes back to the mind-body problem. Many materialist scientists have sought to convince much of the western world into thinking we are just a bunch of random physically processes with the illusion of an independent non-causal capacity to make sense of the world, that is our mind. Many seemed okay with this, but then AI happened. Odd how money gets people’s priorities straight (if AI is equal to human artists, we lose money). 1. If we believe that consciousness is unique to humans (and perhaps lesser species to some extent) and if AI is NOT conscious, there is a fundamental different between the two. A machine can’t replace a soul. 2. If consciousness is a epiphenomenological illusion, then we are really no different then machines; a set of algorithms moved randomly by nothing.
came here not recognizing ben affleck and thinking it was a panel on succession (via popular tumblr clip) but stayed for the insightful and accurate read on the future of AI
I don't think so. He isn't saying it won't be important, he's saying that it won't be the primary creative voice, it will be a tool. If you think that an AI could have written fight club for example you haven't been paying attention to AI. I'm not saying it never will, but it's no where near that now nor will it be for a long time. Art is made by the human experience & human emotion which no machine has.
He related it to render times. He said "50 people to render a couple images" The cost and time is enormous for film making that's why he also referenced house of the dragon
Bruce Wayne is right. AI will affect DreamWorks, Industrial Light and Magic, it will never be Shakespeare but it is dam close the writers strike is evidence of that.
Today's AI has been labeled all wrong by most people. By its very definition, it's supposed to be autonomous, which this is not by a long shot. This AI is more of an Assisted Interface, with necessary human interaction. What's really at stake is the future of copyright/trademark to an unfathomable degree that would overwhelm the judiciary system (as if that hasn't happened already). One thing is certain: There is NO WAY IN HAIL Hollywood will EVER abandon AI. The strikes meant absolutely nothing in that regard. The extras will be replaced with AI figure, writer rooms will be reduced to one writer doing a "human" draft of an AI's prompt, and FX will be commanded by an AI render. All that has to happen is for the audience to find out and collectively say "meh", and then it's wabbit season on all proceeding movies. It's inevitable.
I agree with him. The human brain is better than AI which is essentially linear algebra or large datasets. Humans touch is much better and will be for a long time.
im in ai\ml classes, he sounds like a professor. he really did his homework on this, at some point i thought this video was GenAi cause Ben just stood and delivered some pipebombs cmpunk style
This is going to age very poorly. The exponential growth is going to have him eating his word. Don’t get me wrong, I would still prefer to watch actual people, but we are not going to know the difference in a few years (or less!!)
“Two seasons of House of the Dragon in a year” - only if George R.R. Martin keeps up w/ the writing. Which is precisely the point Ben is making. It’s funny b/c it’s true
Well spoken, well researched and made some very smart arguments. Ben knows his stuff! However, I have to disagree with his point on how AI will be delegated to the role of a craftsman without being able to be an effective editor. I think the timeline will be much shorter than what Ben is predicting. "Taste" and "trend making" are learnable, transferrable skills. I'm not an AI expert, but I am a professional software engineer who has a fine art degree and professional design experience. AI is going to continue to surprise us despite their obviously limited architecture (just a token predictor!), and it won't be long until AI is indistinguishable to the best human editors and curators. Good luck to us all.
Craftsmen is a bad comparison. Craftsmen are those whose creations contain the heart and soul of the skilled worker. Historically, it was automation and the factory system that brought a near end to craftspeople. I see what Affleck is saying, but he makes a comparison I don’t agree with.
I agree with a lot he's saying but wow, way to bash craftsmen and VFX artists in one go. Saying craftsmen have no creativity or art is what an insane person would say. Ben learn how to make something by hand first before you bash the people who deliver your films.
The only correct observation he made is at 1:19 “AI is a craftsman” - finally someone drops the “tool” stupidity; a tool only does what you can make it do; AI is several degrees above that and is no more a tool than the painter you commissioned to paint your family portrait is a tool. He has a myopic view of how this is going to unfold. Filmmaking is about to become extinct. In less than 10 years, AI will, undoubtedly, reach absolute photographic realism, complete with fine tuning controls - think of it as a 3D software where you can easily calibrate any element it generates. No one will be stupid enough to dump even half a million dollars to pay for sets, locations, equipment, cast and crew on an indie film when they can achieve the same shots, without any logistical problems nor pressure, for a fraction of the cost. The process of filmmaking is more than half of the expressive value of the art form. Once that becomes obsolete, so does the art form. People are in denial about how dire the situation is.
Hes exactly right.. .go see joe rogans podcast with Musk (the latest)... they tested grok and it completely failed to be funny... it constructed something humans had directed it to construct - and thats all it did.
This is what we’ve BEEN having as the anti ai argument….”its not gonna a b c, its gonna x y z lol MAYBE but even if it DOES x y z THEN idk but not a b c at least for HELLA mf long broh haha“. And then it actually z y x’s then b c a’s l o l’s and r o f l’s 😮🌝😗
“It shouldn’t take 1000 people to render something”… what a tool. This guy has no insight into the VFX industry and the amount of work and craft that goes into the work.
The skill to make images is not an art form, it’s just skill. A chair can be made by a craftsman or a machine. But a new chair, a unique visionary chair, requires an “outside the box” thinking, a rather paracausal predisposition (yes I took that word from Destiny lore).
@@StylizedSchools The Skill to make images is a CRAFT. The desire, goal, and capacity to imbue those images with a deeper emotional meaning is the art form.
@@Gueebster Correct. Anyone can be taught how to paint, but to actually produce something artistic requires more than the motor skills of placing the brush onto the canvas. Creating VFX scenes etc that are amazing looking and memorable and leave crowds saying “oh my god” is absolutely artistry.
Clearly Affleck has a romanticised view of the art of movie making. The thing about making money is, if these film studios can pay less to make more, what do you think they would do?
I am in IT and no, this fantasy will not come to pass anytime soon. Afflek should stick to acting and not try (again) to make pronouncements about things outside his specialist area of expertise. AI isn’t really intelligent. Language models mimic human interactions, but cannot be creative. Maybe an AI tool will take a human creation and make some video content around it, but it will be a pale imitation of a purely human work.
I somewhat agree but I feel that he doesn't realize that the ai limitations he observes for replacing actors are present in every field and it's the reason you won't be getting rid of vfx artists any time soon in my opinion, specificity, intention, consistency. artistry is needed for VFx concept art music, animation, etc. No doubt we'll see integrated to the workflow powerful ai tools but Unless ChatGPT reaches AGI and starts illustrating an generating VFX itself I don't see image or video generators reaching that level of understanding, people see ai as a monolith but this are completely different specialized programs, even when you use copilot or chatGpt to generate an image it's just prompting it into their corresponding image generators.
I think he has it upside down. Shakespear and different actors will have it harder than the special effect artists in the short term. Since the special effect artists will do the work of everyone in film together with the AI 😂 Although Im assuming it improves slightly from where we are today, as its hell to work with some of this AI at the moment. But it improves fast and we see where its going. Long term, 5 years ahead they will all be gone. 😅
My issue with this is that he is correct if you only scale up the current existing state lf AI. But the current existing state of AI is going to continue to change and it will do so extremely fast.
This is the way it is going to play out, I think Ben is looking from the perspective of the present state of technology, in a relativity short period of time, 9 years MAX, AI. will write , produce, create, the whole film, and in a virtual environment, Cinemas will be replaced with Community AI gatherings, immersive , and customers will dictate the market, they wont care HOW its created they just want more and more content, like the product market today, faster, disposable and more of it, as Tapes replaced gramophones and CD replaced tapes and Mp3 replaced CD, progress is inevitable , Where is stops and what we VALUE as the human expressing itself is the choice we have to make, A.I. will run simulations that will advance medicine, but some of the things that we consider sacred to human creativity will be done quicker and better by technology, WE created A.I. it is part of our species next step . And it will be overall a positive one, ....Love bens work, respect his perspective and wish it were true.... but well.....watch this space
he couldn’t be less worried, he’s the one 1st already living the best of his life and won’t have to work at all any day in his life 2nd he will profit from this as predominantly he is a film maker and producer rather than an actor
He is worried. Just as voice actors, artists, writers, musicians, and so on… are worried. For some it’s financial, but it’s far more than that. Especially for those at the top, for those whose identities and egos are defined by their craft. It’s going to be a hard pill to swallow.
@@wonmoreminuteif you click a button and generate a movie do I want to see it? Nope. Art is often special because it's about the person making it. Why are there huge thick books about bob Dylan? Because his songs are about his life too. AI isn't gonna do interviews, and if you needed it to be creative you weren't an artist to begin with
@ Tell me the names of the studio musicians on the soundtracks of the last 10 movies you watched. Tell me the names of the photographers and the models in the last 10 clothing ads you looked at. Tell me the names of the animators who animated one of the most emotionally powerful opening sequences of any movie in the last 20 years… which did not feature a “real human”… the movie UP. How many of your favorite authors use ghost writers? What are the names of the production assistants, the location managers, the set decorators, the makeup artistes, the lighting crews, cinematographers, and assistant directors on the top 10 most popular TV shows in 2024? Off the top of your head without searching for it, what is the name of the guy who does all of the Tom Cruise deep fakes? Without looking, who are the artists who painted the IKEA prints hanging on your walls? For every “special” artist, there are thousands upon thousands who no one knows, no one cares about, and no one will give a second thought to if it’s not them behind the art they once created.
@@joshuafisher4241 Why do you say AI won't do interviews? Just because an intelligence is artificial, it doesn't mean it's all the one great big Borg. AI "models" will be individuals, form families & lineages and more. This is an aspect of evolution. Some will be more "talented" in some areas than others, so there will be differentiation as well.
Only a few thousand days from being a few thousand days from being right on the cusp of something great happening according to Sam Altman……we just need to get him one trillion dollars in order to make the computer smart enough to cure cancer, write screenplays, translate animal sounds into English, and so much more!
"but they're just cross-pollinating things that exist, nothing new is created" Affleck says at 1:35 He continues..... "Compare this to when I wrote Goodwill Hunting. As though from some divine inspiration I gave birth to the concepts of The Hero, The Mentor, and The Love Interest. In yet another stroke of genius I gave one of them a funny little accent and the rest is history."
This is such a false equivilancy on your part. The way AI works is very clearly LLMs functioning on pattern recognition, whereas a human writer's decisions are based on emotional response and taste - which is precisely what Ben was saying here. There is a massive difference between craft and art in this context.
@@Gueebster He said that the combination of existing ideas yields nothing new. That's a pretty strange statement for a writer to make. To your second point. A writer is not born with fully formed emotions and preferences. Writers develop by absorbing new patterns of information, just like models.
It's funny he doesn't have much problem when it's about other aspects of filmmaking : "it might replace VFX, cause maybe you don't need that much people to render something... it will be able to write you an episode that could be a bit chunky but hey, more shows to watch". Seems all cool to him BUT acting.
I love Ben Affleck and i think it has an informed pov compared to other actors but while he acknowledges AI could democratize filmmaking like by lowering barriers, he underestimates the potential of human-AI collaboration. Though he views AI as merely imitative, he overlooks how AI's technical capabilities could empower human artists by turning him in a powerful collaborator.
Yikes.... his posture is that of a cornered animal. The irony I found was Ben's words were really well put together and full of buzzy words... like a transformer just spat them out. ;) Joking aside, I feel bad for those left behind as industries see hyper-novelty.
He's literally been consistently working at the top of his industry since he was 20 years old. He isn't a know it all, he's literally a hugely experienced professional expert.
@@MashmanMusic Couldn't find it. I get it that you are entitled to your opinion. I don't think any of us has any real evidence for what AI is capable of. But let's see what happens. I still think I am right.
I disagree with him. In such a short amount of time texting your thought has become a video. Adding more tools, and it has become near unrecognizable. The more human data it gets, the more human it can create, the way a human does. At this point in time, for instance, "classic" music still outperforms newer music on even streaming platforms. I think that is due to the fact the creativity has hit a wall because art isn't original by humans. Ben is putting human creativity on a pedestal. Human art is created like the AI, from years of pulling resources and ideas together to make it new. And those regurgitated ideas are hitting a wall these days in music and film. From The Stones to Let Zeppelin to Marilyn Manson, to the cuts on a record that formed the music of hip hop with great poets and mc's, it's all been from a little bit of stealing (sometimes a lot of stealing, Jimmy Page). Young folks want an instant fix. The brain is being wired this way now. Celebrities like Affleck and his former wife who had to bow out of her stadium tour, are becoming more and more irrelevant to upcoming audiences. Once GenX passes, and millennials, you will have an audience of adults who are the children now who know a talentless UA-cam star more than anyone from Hollywood, who Ben thinks is so talented when in fact they are also just extremely lucky. He is right that AI will allow for more creatives, and those creatives will manipulate AI actors the way a director can and an editor to see the good takes. That is why Zach Snyder is so harmful for film art, only in my opinion. This work consists of poor judgement of good actors acting and then is many filled with CGI that AI will be able to do very soon. UA-cam creatives and others with no doubt direct and make more human feeling films than Snyder and so much out there today that fails at the box office. And eventually, AI will do it quite well itself all on its own. Has been ever seen the AI that added to Hemingway's shortest story? Many think it continued it flawlessly. Shakespeare will be a game of chess that eventually AI spits out like a fart from Ben's butt.
It's not Ben's fault he doesn't know whats coming. Most people don't know. By 2030 we will have ASI. ASI will be hundreds of thousands times smarter than humans. AI will easily be able to build entire movies with any actor and any movie setting. EFFORTLESSLY. The only problem is people will not be able to make money from actors using AI but if its in the comforts of your own home and not being monetized then its all very legal. Hollywood is screwed. We're already see it now with a drastic reduction in movies and horrible writing. Some sfx movies now look worse than 10 years ago. The hollywood people are in for a rude awakening over the next decade when the million dollar movies run out and they're left having to live like everyone else.
This is actually a hilarious comment that highlights there’s this smug satisfaction and disrespect towards the entertainment industry. Hey Einstein, if ai gets hundreds of thousands of times smarter than humans, how will anyone be able to get a job anywhere? If anything, your argument only shows how artists will be protected in the long run. Unlike most jobs, human effort and expression is something a lot of people appreciate in art. You might not, but the fact remains a lot do. That isn’t the case with most regular jobs. No one cares about human expression in programming It’s like saying those robots shooting perfect hoops will replace basketball players. Ofc they won’t; it doesn’t matter how much better they are, the human element is too important to be replaced
Ben is too smug about his craft. AI is coming for his job and likely will do a lot better at it than he is able. It is simply advancing too quick for him to say the actors are insulated from what is coming.
Lmao, why would he be afraid? He’s already made it. If actors and writers get replaced, ai will be able to replace everyone. There’s no reason to be afraid if it’s affecting everyone, especially in the entertainment industry where there will always be value in human effort and expression
@DerrickWilson-fm7vc you think humans are special....lol the U.S. has made it pretty obvious that they were expendable. From the healthcare to school shooting...what that means there is no one standing in the way of A.I .
Nah. Martin Scorsese's movies all have a religious subtext because he's a devout Catholic. That's part of his taste as an artist. Craftsman aid filmmaking, but they don't solidify the vision.
Well Said!!!!! These comments actling like AI is healthy, creative, and humanistic. AI is taking away jobs, and human connection, and problem solving techniques and overpowering stars who have a lot to offer Ben affleck is very Intelligent❤❤❤❤❤ most people who talk fast are very intelligent because they have so many ideas in their mind.

Give AI a chance at making the Star Wars movie. I don't think it will do a worse job than Disney
CoPilot, take what Ben Affleck just said, and rewrite it in the tone of Shakespeare:
A: Alas, 'tis not possible now.
B: But shall it be so in times to come?
C: Highly unlikely, I fear.
Movies, methinks, shall be the last bastion, should all else be supplanted by the artifice of AI. This contrivance may craft verse that echoes the Elizabethan tongue, yet it cannot conjure the genius of Shakespeare himself. The essence of two or three actors in a chamber, and the discerning taste to weave their craft, eludes the grasp of AI, and I wager it shall for a considerable span.
What AI may achieve is to ease the burdensome toil of filmmaking, lowering costs and granting voice to many who yearn to tell their tales, akin to those who aspire to create a "Good Will Hunting." AI, at best, is a craftsman-learning by imitation, observing the techniques of others. Thus, it operates, a vast library of meanings, yet it creates naught new. A craftsman knows the art of labor; true art lies in knowing when to cease.
This knowledge of restraint, I fear, shall vex AI, for it lacks taste and consistency. In the realm of generative video, AI shall perform certain tasks with greater meaning, yet I would not wish to dwell in the visual effects trade, for it faces dire straits. What once cost a fortune shall soon be but a pittance, and perhaps it need not require a thousand souls to render a scene.
Yet, fear not, for it shan't replace the human spirit in filmmaking. It may enhance backgrounds, alter hues, and mend errors. Imagine, two seasons of "House of the Dragon" in a single year! In the grand tapestry of economics, where oligopolies vie, one might expect an increase in productions, allowing for more tales to unfold.
In time, AI may grant thee the power to request thine own episode, saying, "I shall pay thirty dollars for a tale where Kendall seizes the company and doth embark on an affair with Stuey." It may be a tad janky, yet it shall know the actors and remix their essence.
Thus, I envision AI as a new stream of revenue, akin to the DVD's former glory, which once siphoned a portion of the filmmaking economy. And what if folk desire to craft brief videos, donning the guise of Avengers? Just as one could procure an Iron Man costume, so too shall they acquire an Iron Man pack, transforming into heroes on the stage of Twitch. Such is the future that awaits!
My boy's wicked smart.
If you think he Is smart...he knows nothing
Well, by the coments, people get used to watch bad movies, so AI movies is already ok for them. The "Eating bugs is good" thing will happen very easily.
Ben is the bug
Did not know Ben Afflec had such a genius AI sermon in him gaddam lol😂👏👏
I don’t often align with Ben’s intellectual positions on larger topics, but I have to admit he makes some compelling observations here. It’s clear he has thought the subject through in significant detail, and I hope he’s right. For anyone working in a creative industry, the rapidly shifting landscape can feel both daunting and unpredictable, demanding an equally swift capacity to adapt.
That said, there’s an enduring truth that feels worth emphasizing, even if it may seem irrelevant to some: the greatest artists throughout history have often created not because they were recognized or rewarded, but because they had to. Kafka had to write. Van Gogh had to paint. Vivian Maier had to capture images of the world she existed in. What makes these examples particularly poignant is that none of them experienced widespread recognition during their lifetimes. Yet their work endures, not because of its commercial value, but because it sprang from a deep, intrinsic need for expression.
AI, for all its impressive capabilities, can never replicate the joy, the cathartic release, or the deeply personal fulfillment of true artistic creation. Artists will continue to express their innermost emotions, whether celebrated, overlooked, or somewhere in between. While AI may reshape industries and redefine how art is produced or consumed, it cannot silence the human drive to create.
(Full disclosure: I used AI to write this. I’m no Spinoza, but I’m okay with that.)
Well said.
I respect Ben Affleck’s opinion about AI and its impact on the movie industry. However, Visual effects (VFX) is a matter of cost AND taste so unless filmmakers are satisfied with janky AI VFX only for the sake of saving a buck, it’s still going to take a long while till AI can provide what VFX artists can
Incredibly more intelligent than I expected. I am pleasantly surprised with how he put this.
Nevertheless I do think the issue of AI and art goes back to the mind-body problem.
Many materialist scientists have sought to convince much of the western world into thinking we are just a bunch of random physically processes with the illusion of an independent non-causal capacity to make sense of the world, that is our mind.
Many seemed okay with this, but then AI happened.
Odd how money gets people’s priorities straight (if AI is equal to human artists, we lose money).
1. If we believe that consciousness is unique to humans (and perhaps lesser species to some extent) and if AI is NOT conscious, there is a fundamental different between the two.
A machine can’t replace a soul.
2. If consciousness is a epiphenomenological illusion, then we are really no different then machines; a set of algorithms moved randomly by nothing.
Ben is right
I never imagined that he was so intelligent! Great reflection.
Ben is Smart.
came here not recognizing ben affleck and thinking it was a panel on succession (via popular tumblr clip) but stayed for the insightful and accurate read on the future of AI
Feels like Steve Balmer laughing at the original iPhone
it’s not always a question about what’s possible, but what people relate or want to relate to.
I don't think so. He isn't saying it won't be important, he's saying that it won't be the primary creative voice, it will be a tool. If you think that an AI could have written fight club for example you haven't been paying attention to AI. I'm not saying it never will, but it's no where near that now nor will it be for a long time. Art is made by the human experience & human emotion which no machine has.
developers, developers...
Ben is brilliant
Ben's knowledgeable of current AI, but totally underestimating the future, and AI's future creative capabilities.
He related it to render times. He said "50 people to render a couple images"
The cost and time is enormous for film making that's why he also referenced house of the dragon
Bruce Wayne is right. AI will affect DreamWorks, Industrial Light and Magic, it will never be Shakespeare but it is dam close the writers strike is evidence of that.
Is the new Shakespeare even around today? And if so, who would care? Not the nostalgia-creaming fanbabies.
@@commandercaptain4664 Robots emulating art is around today and people losing their jobs are the ones that care.
how thoughtful of Matt Damon
Today's AI has been labeled all wrong by most people. By its very definition, it's supposed to be autonomous, which this is not by a long shot. This AI is more of an Assisted Interface, with necessary human interaction. What's really at stake is the future of copyright/trademark to an unfathomable degree that would overwhelm the judiciary system (as if that hasn't happened already).
One thing is certain: There is NO WAY IN HAIL Hollywood will EVER abandon AI. The strikes meant absolutely nothing in that regard. The extras will be replaced with AI figure, writer rooms will be reduced to one writer doing a "human" draft of an AI's prompt, and FX will be commanded by an AI render. All that has to happen is for the audience to find out and collectively say "meh", and then it's wabbit season on all proceeding movies. It's inevitable.
This will not age well
This will Age Instantly.
Right or wrong, he's obviously still articulate, observant and intelligent.
the fact that you don't like him prevents you from realizing he is right
I agree with him. The human brain is better than AI which is essentially linear algebra or large datasets. Humans touch is much better and will be for a long time.
You will not age well
im in ai\ml classes, he sounds like a professor. he really did his homework on this, at some point i thought this video was GenAi cause Ben just stood and delivered some pipebombs cmpunk style
This is going to age very poorly. The exponential growth is going to have him eating his word. Don’t get me wrong, I would still prefer to watch actual people, but we are not going to know the difference in a few years (or less!!)
Every time someone says that AI can't do something, you know they are going to be wrong.
in the future ai will be indistinguishable from real actors.
“Two seasons of House of the Dragon in a year” - only if George R.R. Martin keeps up w/ the writing. Which is precisely the point Ben is making. It’s funny b/c it’s true
Well spoken, well researched and made some very smart arguments. Ben knows his stuff!
However, I have to disagree with his point on how AI will be delegated to the role of a craftsman without being able to be an effective editor. I think the timeline will be much shorter than what Ben is predicting. "Taste" and "trend making" are learnable, transferrable skills. I'm not an AI expert, but I am a professional software engineer who has a fine art degree and professional design experience. AI is going to continue to surprise us despite their obviously limited architecture (just a token predictor!), and it won't be long until AI is indistinguishable to the best human editors and curators. Good luck to us all.
Love AI, use it all the time. Ben is absolutely on the money about both its uses and its limits, and well articulate as well.
“Craftsman [sic] is knowing how to work, art is knowing when to stop.” In other words, AI still runs up against the halting problem
Ben❤
AI will never reach the creative heights of Gigli.
He didn't write or direct that crap.
Craftsmen is a bad comparison. Craftsmen are those whose creations contain the heart and soul of the skilled worker. Historically, it was automation and the factory system that brought a near end to craftspeople.
I see what Affleck is saying, but he makes a comparison I don’t agree with.
I agree with a lot he's saying but wow, way to bash craftsmen and VFX artists in one go. Saying craftsmen have no creativity or art is what an insane person would say. Ben learn how to make something by hand first before you bash the people who deliver your films.
This guy knows his stuff!
Kendal Roy gets the company and then runs off and has an affair with Stewy.
Wow. That is very specific references. Where do he get that idea.
Fair and well informed predictions, at this point. He's got as good a chance of being right as anybody.
The only correct observation he made is at 1:19 “AI is a craftsman” - finally someone drops the “tool” stupidity; a tool only does what you can make it do; AI is several degrees above that and is no more a tool than the painter you commissioned to paint your family portrait is a tool. He has a myopic view of how this is going to unfold. Filmmaking is about to become extinct. In less than 10 years, AI will, undoubtedly, reach absolute photographic realism, complete with fine tuning controls - think of it as a 3D software where you can easily calibrate any element it generates. No one will be stupid enough to dump even half a million dollars to pay for sets, locations, equipment, cast and crew on an indie film when they can achieve the same shots, without any logistical problems nor pressure, for a fraction of the cost. The process of filmmaking is more than half of the expressive value of the art form. Once that becomes obsolete, so does the art form. People are in denial about how dire the situation is.
AI will never be a part of my life
they should replace the sound engineer with AI for sure
Hes exactly right.. .go see joe rogans podcast with Musk (the latest)... they tested grok and it completely failed to be funny... it constructed something humans had directed it to construct - and thats all it did.
And with that, all future invention stagnated and died... SIKE!
nice seeing this dude being so passionate...
This is what we’ve BEEN having as the anti ai argument….”its not gonna a b c, its gonna x y z lol MAYBE but even if it DOES x y z THEN idk but not a b c at least for HELLA mf long broh haha“.
And then it actually z y x’s then b c a’s l o l’s and r o f l’s 😮🌝😗
“It shouldn’t take 1000 people to render something”… what a tool. This guy has no insight into the VFX industry and the amount of work and craft that goes into the work.
He completely contradicted himself…Visual FX is an art form.
The skill to make images is not an art form, it’s just skill. A chair can be made by a craftsman or a machine. But a new chair, a unique visionary chair, requires an “outside the box” thinking, a rather paracausal predisposition (yes I took that word from Destiny lore).
@@InnovativeSaint the skill to make images is not an art form? so every painter ever..just not an artist then?
@@StylizedSchools The Skill to make images is a CRAFT. The desire, goal, and capacity to imbue those images with a deeper emotional meaning is the art form.
he didn't. He just said that that industry will probably suffer the most.
@@Gueebster Correct. Anyone can be taught how to paint, but to actually produce something artistic requires more than the motor skills of placing the brush onto the canvas. Creating VFX scenes etc that are amazing looking and memorable and leave crowds saying “oh my god” is absolutely artistry.
Clearly Affleck has a romanticised view of the art of movie making. The thing about making money is, if these film studios can pay less to make more, what do you think they would do?
He's truly one of the smartest dumb people out there. Is it the smug that makes him so easy to dislike?
I am in IT and no, this fantasy will not come to pass anytime soon. Afflek should stick to acting and not try (again) to make pronouncements about things outside his specialist area of expertise. AI isn’t really intelligent. Language models mimic human interactions, but cannot be creative. Maybe an AI tool will take a human creation and make some video content around it, but it will be a pale imitation of a purely human work.
You wouldn't get two seasons Ben ... you'd get 365 episodes / year
I somewhat agree but I feel that he doesn't realize that the ai limitations he observes for replacing actors are present in every field and it's the reason you won't be getting rid of vfx artists any time soon in my opinion, specificity, intention, consistency. artistry is needed for VFx concept art music, animation, etc. No doubt we'll see integrated to the workflow powerful ai tools but Unless ChatGPT reaches AGI and starts illustrating an generating VFX itself I don't see image or video generators reaching that level of understanding, people see ai as a monolith but this are completely different specialized programs, even when you use copilot or chatGpt to generate an image it's just prompting it into their corresponding image generators.
His exhausting imagine hearing him all day
Found J-Lo. 😉
no kidding. can't stand him. he tries too hard.
I think he has it upside down. Shakespear and different actors will have it harder than the special effect artists in the short term. Since the special effect artists will do the work of everyone in film together with the AI 😂
Although Im assuming it improves slightly from where we are today, as its hell to work with some of this AI at the moment. But it improves fast and we see where its going.
Long term, 5 years ahead they will all be gone. 😅
My issue with this is that he is correct if you only scale up the current existing state lf AI. But the current existing state of AI is going to continue to change and it will do so extremely fast.
Exactly 👍
This is the way it is going to play out, I think Ben is looking from the perspective of the present state of technology, in a relativity short period of time, 9 years MAX, AI. will write , produce, create, the whole film, and in a virtual environment, Cinemas will be replaced with Community AI gatherings, immersive , and customers will dictate the market, they wont care HOW its created they just want more and more content, like the product market today, faster, disposable and more of it, as Tapes replaced gramophones and CD replaced tapes and Mp3 replaced CD, progress is inevitable , Where is stops and what we VALUE as the human expressing itself is the choice we have to make, A.I. will run simulations that will advance medicine, but some of the things that we consider sacred to human creativity will be done quicker and better by technology, WE created A.I. it is part of our species next step . And it will be overall a positive one, ....Love bens work, respect his perspective and wish it were true.... but well.....watch this space
Don’t agree, he’s worried what’s coming
he couldn’t be less worried, he’s the one 1st already living the best of his life and won’t have to work at all any day in his life 2nd he will profit from this as predominantly he is a film maker and producer rather than an actor
He is worried. Just as voice actors, artists, writers, musicians, and so on… are worried. For some it’s financial, but it’s far more than that. Especially for those at the top, for those whose identities and egos are defined by their craft. It’s going to be a hard pill to swallow.
@@wonmoreminuteif you click a button and generate a movie do I want to see it? Nope. Art is often special because it's about the person making it. Why are there huge thick books about bob Dylan? Because his songs are about his life too. AI isn't gonna do interviews, and if you needed it to be creative you weren't an artist to begin with
@ Tell me the names of the studio musicians on the soundtracks of the last 10 movies you watched. Tell me the names of the photographers and the models in the last 10 clothing ads you looked at. Tell me the names of the animators who animated one of the most emotionally powerful opening sequences of any movie in the last 20 years… which did not feature a “real human”… the movie UP.
How many of your favorite authors use ghost writers? What are the names of the production assistants, the location managers, the set decorators, the makeup artistes, the lighting crews, cinematographers, and assistant directors on the top 10 most popular TV shows in 2024?
Off the top of your head without searching for it, what is the name of the guy who does all of the Tom Cruise deep fakes? Without looking, who are the artists who painted the IKEA prints hanging on your walls?
For every “special” artist, there are thousands upon thousands who no one knows, no one cares about, and no one will give a second thought to if it’s not them behind the art they once created.
@@joshuafisher4241 Why do you say AI won't do interviews? Just because an intelligence is artificial, it doesn't mean it's all the one great big Borg. AI "models" will be individuals, form families & lineages and more. This is an aspect of evolution. Some will be more "talented" in some areas than others, so there will be differentiation as well.
Only a few thousand days from being a few thousand days from being right on the cusp of something great happening according to Sam Altman……we just need to get him one trillion dollars in order to make the computer smart enough to cure cancer, write screenplays, translate animal sounds into English, and so much more!
Also, it doesn't take 1000 people to render something. 1000 machines maybe. It's called a render farm, genius.
Ai doesn't get drunk
😅 you should have way more likes and comments on this! Lol
Only with POWER.
@@TheLondonAlliance nvm looks like ai does get drunk
No, but it can carry a virus or can be oversaturated like any technology.
"but they're just cross-pollinating things that exist, nothing new is created" Affleck says at 1:35
He continues..... "Compare this to when I wrote Goodwill Hunting. As though from some divine inspiration I gave birth to the concepts of The Hero, The Mentor, and The Love Interest. In yet another stroke of genius I gave one of them a funny little accent and the rest is history."
This is such a false equivilancy on your part. The way AI works is very clearly LLMs functioning on pattern recognition, whereas a human writer's decisions are based on emotional response and taste - which is precisely what Ben was saying here. There is a massive difference between craft and art in this context.
@@Gueebster He said that the combination of existing ideas yields nothing new. That's a pretty strange statement for a writer to make.
To your second point. A writer is not born with fully formed emotions and preferences. Writers develop by absorbing new patterns of information, just like models.
This is the Ben that's in his happy place talking about his craft.... Love that for him, so smart, so passionate about his business.
Stay strong Ben.
It's funny he doesn't have much problem when it's about other aspects of filmmaking : "it might replace VFX, cause maybe you don't need that much people to render something... it will be able to write you an episode that could be a bit chunky but hey, more shows to watch". Seems all cool to him BUT acting.
Well, no. He said it will be able to create entire episodes eventually, not just write them.
I love Ben Affleck and i think it has an informed pov compared to other actors but while he acknowledges AI could democratize filmmaking like by lowering barriers, he underestimates the potential of human-AI collaboration. Though he views AI as merely imitative, he overlooks how AI's technical capabilities could empower human artists by turning him in a powerful collaborator.
He knows, but doesn't want to admit it
I think that is exactly what he is saying. Perhaps you should watch it again?
you clearly didn't listen to what he said as that's exactly what he said.
@@Ruchikun No, you didn't
@@LeonJacobs ehr what? I'm agreeing with you :p
Yikes.... his posture is that of a cornered animal. The irony I found was Ben's words were really well put together and full of buzzy words... like a transformer just spat them out. ;)
Joking aside, I feel bad for those left behind as industries see hyper-novelty.
he's coping so hard
Right.
I can see why jlo left him, he is a know it all
and she isn’t?
he knows all about the diddy parties
He's literally been consistently working at the top of his industry since he was 20 years old. He isn't a know it all, he's literally a hugely experienced professional expert.
No, he's just a very smart guy and well spoken, which most don't expect.
He knows what he is talking about. AI can be supplementary but not a replacement for the artists. I actually love his response.
The democratization of art wants to speak to your manager...
This is completely faulty logic based on doing no research. Read my other comment for context.
@@MashmanMusic Couldn't find it. I get it that you are entitled to your opinion. I don't think any of us has any real evidence for what AI is capable of. But let's see what happens. I still think I am right.
He's exhausting.
then move on, why does very little emotion need to be shared with the world? it’s exhausting
@@djami0123 Sorry, Mrs. Affleck.
I disagree with him. In such a short amount of time texting your thought has become a video. Adding more tools, and it has become near unrecognizable. The more human data it gets, the more human it can create, the way a human does. At this point in time, for instance, "classic" music still outperforms newer music on even streaming platforms. I think that is due to the fact the creativity has hit a wall because art isn't original by humans. Ben is putting human creativity on a pedestal. Human art is created like the AI, from years of pulling resources and ideas together to make it new. And those regurgitated ideas are hitting a wall these days in music and film. From The Stones to Let Zeppelin to Marilyn Manson, to the cuts on a record that formed the music of hip hop with great poets and mc's, it's all been from a little bit of stealing (sometimes a lot of stealing, Jimmy Page). Young folks want an instant fix. The brain is being wired this way now. Celebrities like Affleck and his former wife who had to bow out of her stadium tour, are becoming more and more irrelevant to upcoming audiences. Once GenX passes, and millennials, you will have an audience of adults who are the children now who know a talentless UA-cam star more than anyone from Hollywood, who Ben thinks is so talented when in fact they are also just extremely lucky. He is right that AI will allow for more creatives, and those creatives will manipulate AI actors the way a director can and an editor to see the good takes. That is why Zach Snyder is so harmful for film art, only in my opinion. This work consists of poor judgement of good actors acting and then is many filled with CGI that AI will be able to do very soon. UA-cam creatives and others with no doubt direct and make more human feeling films than Snyder and so much out there today that fails at the box office. And eventually, AI will do it quite well itself all on its own. Has been ever seen the AI that added to Hemingway's shortest story? Many think it continued it flawlessly. Shakespeare will be a game of chess that eventually AI spits out like a fart from Ben's butt.
It's not Ben's fault he doesn't know whats coming. Most people don't know. By 2030 we will have ASI. ASI will be hundreds of thousands times smarter than humans. AI will easily be able to build entire movies with any actor and any movie setting. EFFORTLESSLY. The only problem is people will not be able to make money from actors using AI but if its in the comforts of your own home and not being monetized then its all very legal. Hollywood is screwed. We're already see it now with a drastic reduction in movies and horrible writing. Some sfx movies now look worse than 10 years ago. The hollywood people are in for a rude awakening over the next decade when the million dollar movies run out and they're left having to live like everyone else.
SORA is insane but scary for a lot of jobs like actors
This is actually a hilarious comment that highlights there’s this smug satisfaction and disrespect towards the entertainment industry.
Hey Einstein, if ai gets hundreds of thousands of times smarter than humans, how will anyone be able to get a job anywhere?
If anything, your argument only shows how artists will be protected in the long run.
Unlike most jobs, human effort and expression is something a lot of people appreciate in art. You might not, but the fact remains a lot do.
That isn’t the case with most regular jobs. No one cares about human expression in programming
It’s like saying those robots shooting perfect hoops will replace basketball players. Ofc they won’t; it doesn’t matter how much better they are, the human element is too important to be replaced
This is a very scared man. He knows what AI is capable of today and where it is going and he's speaking as if he does not.
Dude, he's worth tens of millions of dollars. I doubt he's scared.
VFX will be missed. It’s a shame people never appreciated it just because they didn’t want to pay for it.
lol. Let’s see where we stand in 10 years
Hold my Beer Ben Affleck!
Damn that's stupid
Ben is too smug about his craft. AI is coming for his job and likely will do a lot better at it than he is able. It is simply advancing too quick for him to say the actors are insulated from what is coming.
craft or crap? 😆
If actors aren’t protected, no one is bro. It’s coming for your job too
He knows just as much about what is going to happen as everyone else
less
Ben is wrong... there is fear in his voice.
the hyperventilating makes it all the more convincing ...
To me it just looks likes he's aggravated that everyone doesn't see it how he sees it.
Lmao, why would he be afraid? He’s already made it.
If actors and writers get replaced, ai will be able to replace everyone. There’s no reason to be afraid if it’s affecting everyone, especially in the entertainment industry where there will always be value in human effort and expression
@DerrickWilson-fm7vc you think humans are special....lol the U.S. has made it pretty obvious that they were expendable. From the healthcare to school shooting...what that means there is no one standing in the way of A.I .
AI is a craftsman but so is a director.
Nah. Martin Scorsese's movies all have a religious subtext because he's a devout Catholic. That's part of his taste as an artist. Craftsman aid filmmaking, but they don't solidify the vision.
Ben Affleck is 100% correct.
should have interview Will Smith...the Ai king in Hollywood lol
Well Said!!!!!
These comments actling like AI is healthy, creative, and humanistic.
AI is taking away jobs, and human connection, and problem solving techniques and overpowering stars who have a lot to offer
Ben affleck is very Intelligent❤❤❤❤❤ most people who talk fast are very intelligent because they have so many ideas in their mind.
