Facing the Fear: AI & Future of Entertainment
Manage episode 473282611 series 3238601
While some find AI riveting and revolutionary, many in creative communities are filled with fear. Fear of unsustainability, fear of the future of the industry as a whole, and fear that disembodied computers are going to make jobs obsolete while causing irreversible damage to the planet in the process.
Artificial Intelligence has come a long way since we first saw Will Smith eating that bowl of spaghetti, even making it to this year’s Oscars ceremony.
Films like EMILIA PEREZ and THE BRUTALIST came under fire for their use of AI to amplify the vocal performances of their actors, raising questions about transparency and ethical practices.
That leads me to today’s guest, Alex Serdiuk.
Alex is the CEO of the Ukrainian company Respeecher, the AI software that enhanced Adrien Brody’s Hungarian dialogue and synthesized a young Luke Skywalker’s voice in THE MANDALORIAN. Unlike other AI companies, however, Respeecher prides itself on adhering to a strict code of ethics that includes transparency, actor consent, and union consultation.
I feel ambivalent towards the AI of it all, but as someone who faces my fears and follows my curiosities, it was time to poke the hornet's nest.
