My father left the navy in the middle of his 2nd enlistment to help take care of his younger siblings when his mother died (his father died when he was 2). He worked on the docks, as a UPS driver, and later a janitor who went pretty high up in the union. He only got a couple of classes in at a junior college, but usually had 2 to 3 jobs to help raise my sister and I and our 3 half siblings who had been abandoned by their deadbeat college educated engineer father. Dad read constantly, studied history passionately, and was one of the smartest guys I ever met. It always ticked me off when college educated people of clearly average IQ would put him down.

I have been a stylist for 28 years. Bought my first home at the age of 25. I can assure you it’s a great career if you are willing to bust your butt to put the time in and get a solid clientele. It’s a lot of nights and weekends when you are young. Which is the downside of the career. I don’t believe AI or robots will ever take over this career. A robot can not offer a personal relationship with a professional. During the Great Recession it wasn’t easy, however it wasn’t easy for anyone. There were no layoffs in my industry that I’m aware of. I wouldn’t change my career choice for anything. It has done me well. It’s a year or less of school and you can still go to college if need be. At the very least you will have a good paying job.
I wonder how long he worked on that monologue and how much crack he smokes. Lack of quality doesn’t stop Hollywood now. Make more shows for you to watch rather than to teach your children about letters, numbers, colors, etc. rather than play an instrument or a sport yourself or watching the locals play as in Little League where the little kids play, the parents coach, and the kids aged out and are in high school umpire, etc. Hollywood went by the wayside during Covid and can keep sliding into the ocean as far as people in the real world who are laboring for a living so that they can raise their families to have a better life than they had or the same type of serendipity that may never come again. That is why Kamala lost, the working class have an agenda and it is saving America for at least one more generation!
What he didn't detail was the company spent 25% of its earnings dollars the taking care of all the families who lost loved ones ... Some 180 million dollars.
Yep. For example, they just threw some of the iconic scenes of Gladiator into a mixer and added a dollop of CGI and some dialogue from the AI machine and viola! Gladiator II. No doubt to be followed with an even more CgI'd Gladiator III etc etc
The difference between an apprentice, which Ben describes as a Craftsman, and a Craftsman is an important distinction. The first learns from the Craftsman the latter can create for himself and others that which hasn’t been created before. A Craftsman is the result of an apprentice becoming the artist. I am disappointed that he doesn’t understand such a simple concept and is unable to appreciate that a Craftsman is as much as an Artist as he himself would claim to be.
Ben’s hubris prevents him from having any respect for or understanding of craftsmanship in its many forms. He is, apparently, very impressed with the ‘skills’ that he appreciates in practitioners of his craft. However, he is incapable of recognizing that there are people of equal or greater talent in most, if not all, fields. Where there are humans, there will always be a drive to perfect a task. It may not be a drive that all people possess, but it is certainly one that many do experience. It, indeed, compels creativity and excellence in every task that people attempt to accomplish.

He’s probably having “roid rage” from taking steroids to bulk up for his next Batman movie🤔 like everything in Hollywood, Ben is fake and completely out of touch while simultaneously having an exaggerated sense of his own importance…
Is Ben Afflect ‘high?’ Or is he on a ‘stage?’ He’s definitely ’acting?’ He was so animated, and quite over-the-top! Lost his message early. Please note, we’ve been watching cartoons since the beginning. It this Wylie Coyote’s slapstick’s inspiration? I trust you, Rubin… Not Your friend, Ben, on this one. We ALL know where this is going! MSNBC destroyed themselves… Just like all the actors. Just like Ben did!
Ben is dead wrong. He thinks that there are "new ideas" that Ai cant crack. But he is wrong, there are no new ideas and he is narcissistic if he thinks his brain is so special that an ai cant make better stuff
IKR. I thought that he was going to say something profound. He is whistling past the graveyard. AI has already created literature indistinguishable between it and actual Shakespeare. AI is becoming increasingly sophisticated and within our lifetime it will be able to analyze the artist nuances of scripts and acting. Will be able to create lifelike representations of classic actors and create new cinema with them in it.
Physicist, Michio Kaku explained Ai this way once when referring to how distant cosmic civilizations would find other life in the vastness of space. A robot launched into space would seek out Goldie Locks zones, find a planetary body near a planet that could possibly have life or support life and land on that nearby planetary body where it would mine the resources to build a factory that builds more robots to send farther into space to find more life and build more robots to send farther still into space to build more robots to build more robots, etc. Ben is an actor. He knows nothing of what he speaks. Ai is our undoing.
I think Ben is actually spot on with an excellent high level understanding of how LLM's work under the hood. The bold new amazing AI that you envision is a ways off, or at least until the X-formers architecture is improved upon.
@ Thank you for that interesting comment- I agree with you. What I was referring to is that I think Hollywood actors think that they are more important to the future of film than they actually are.
@@blacksage81 If people care. In marketing, people can write far better than AI but the businesses don't want to pay for the extra quality. If AI is "good enough" -- and that's a very low bar -- they will run with the AI and will NOT pay for the talent it takes to have high-quality content.
You are spot on! I was a moderate democrat and I switched years ago. I started hearing innuendos, inferences, etc towards men - I thought, “No one is coming after my husband, sons, and grandsons”!
We really don't know. There's a large marketing push behind AI, keep that in mind. The more these companies can convince the public (notably investors) that AI can do X, Y, and Z, the more money they can raise. They have a financial interest in selling promises, false or otherwise.
He’s clearly upset about AI, his abrupt interruption and then listing A,B,C details on how he thinks it will play out..😂😂..veins bulging from his neck and sweating….
Idk how. It’s impossible to replace that human spark of creativity. AI is a good worker, but doesn’t have a soul so isn’t great at making things that have a human feel. Ask yourself this… can you tell when an image or text is AI generated or human generated? Of course you can. There’s just intangible about it that you can feel.
@desertrose0601 but you are looking at this from the perspective of now. That's a shallow perspective as we are only getting started. Human creativity is always made up of our accumulated experiences. It's like chess. Computers can now beat Grand Masters, why? Are grandmasters lacking creativity?
If AI is not going to replace creatives then creatives better step up their game. The writers strike was embarrassing considering the crap writing recently. At minimum it will weed out the creatives.
got no beef with BEN. Liked his movies. he is a good actor and a director. he is kind to people, especially to workers. not judging him based on his beliefs but glad he was able to realize the better and brighter path. everyone is entitled to his opinions - but the good thing is if there was a mistake made, it is justly corrected!
At least if he’s on vacation he might not break anything else on his way out… I once watched a neighbor get evicted, then he trashed the house, ripped wire out of the walls to sell. Biden’s rummaging through his toolbox at this point, about to tear the walls apart to spite us
AI can manipulate images and text... Ben's line of work. It cannot blow glass, forge a medeval sword, or turn a tree stump into a bear. Ben is replaceable by AI.

As an Argentinian, I can tell you people made fun of Javier Milei like you wouldn't imagine. Just because he was REAL. But he is also BRILLIANT. And you can believe everything he says, unlike politicians. That combination made him win the elections here. As he himself said, "the difference between a madman and a genius, is SUCCESS".
Ben's assuming the movie going masses actually care about creative content. Show them some sex, vice, guns, turmoil and a hapless victim, then toss in a hero.. I think the record speaks for itself.
Tada! The only one in the comments seeing the truth. Yes, creatives make better content. But if the studios can make tons of money on trash, they will make trash and they will NOT pay creatives for "better quality."
Woke is just more content that might be new but hopefully too many dont want. Im watching looney tunes again at 56. Human nature will never change and some of us want the basic stuff

They're educated. They are not educated on the subjects they talk about. There have been background checks to buy guns for decades. Minors can't buy guns nor should they be able to.

I am not at all sure that was Ben Affleck commenting on AI. It was far too slick and intelligible. I think that was an AI rendition of Ben Affleck speaking of AI. While the intelligence of AI is totally fake, the stupidity of humanity is completely real!
Dave, I don't like pumpkin either but I do eat this side dish: Piineer Recipe of Pumpkin and Onions Take a pumpkin or hard squash (NOT spaghetti) Cut in half and scrape out the gross bits in the middle Take a sharp knife and remove the hard outer hull Cut up in chunks the size of a nickel Cut up onion(s) to slices then halve down the middle Place both on a cookie sheet Drizzle on vegetable oil or beef tallow cut in small bits. The pioneers used lard Drizzle on maple syrup Stir it up to coat all pieces with fat and syrup salt and pepper to taste Bake until onions are caramelized and squash is soft when poked with a fork but it's even better when it starts to caramelize too. The higher the oven temp the more often you stir.
When I watch this Affleck interview it just comes across as Ben trying to sound like he knows what he’s talking about by moving his hands around a lot and throwing out a few niche terms related to the topic.
For once, I thought he actually sounded intelligent and articulate, I disagree with him however. AI's only limit is the data it has access to. If AI has no restrictions to data, it could easily replace all of Hollywood. Soon, you'll read about AGSI, and when that happens, it will replace just about everything that doesn't require physical human actions. I believe that the greatest factor for human actors/directors/etc. will be the people as the masses, wanting human made products though nostalgia and/or activism against AI.
AI will not replace the creative types. What about CGI? They are replacing glass painters, visual effects staff,, miniatures, etc. CGI coupled with green screen is allowing for things to be filmed that couldn't years ago. Actors will eventually be relegated to voice actors.
Ben clearly doesn’t know what he is talking about. It may not be in his lifetime, but AI will complete replace actors….Period. You can also tell by how agitated he got at the beginning, he doesn’t like AI going into the Hollywood realm…
True. And AI doesn’t need to “write Shakespeare” or make Kubrick or Hitchcock level films in order to be profitable. The vast majority of writing & cinema isn’t on that level
If we haven’t noticed, all the movie industry has been putting out are remakes with a different actor or are DEI rewrites of popular movies like Snow Woke and the 7 she/hers 🤦♂️ Ok Ben, let’s see if you can create new movies. If so, it’s about time. We are ready for new. So far all the new movie releases look and sound like Taylor Swift music…all the same
Everything is biased and corrupted. And everything is political. Everything can only be political if politicians control some part of every aspect of life. And people feel free? Do as you’re told or auffer the consequences sometimes only socially through social norms
At the heart of all creativity is exactly that...HEART. AI will never have heart. It might be smart and be able to create or recreate individuals or write a script, but it's the chemistry and connection between individual personalities that allow us express ourselves in unique unpredictable ways. There is a lot of improvisation in tv/ film, based on being in the moment and in relationship to other cast members and crew. Also a lot of mistakes and accidents that actors have also make it into the final cut because it benefits the character or plot in someway. This need for AI to be perfect will take the fun out of everything. The movie the Princess Bride is a great example. Billy Crystal was told to improvise and wasn't given any lines. The chemistry and play between him and the crew created one of the most iconic characters and he was only in the movie for 5 minutes. AI will never measure up to talent like that.
I think our human-y “heart” will be changed by ai-generated art. Look how TV changed us, we’re insane and relate differently with one another. I’m afraid that life will imitate art, and art will no longer be an expression of humanity
Affleck is correct in his assessment of AI limitations but what he doesn’t understand is that already in film and music a pall pf mediocrity is being accepted because less and less artful work is being produced to highlight the difference.His beloved DEI has made sure of that by robbing art in film of its merit.
Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, and Joe Scarborough all deserve to disappear from the airwaves forever. They're the worst of the worst apparatchiks on TV.

It’s a lot of nights and weekends when you are young. Which is the downside of the career. I don’t believe AI or robots will ever take over this career. A robot can not offer a personal relationship with a professional. During the Great Recession it wasn’t easy, however it wasn’t easy for anyone. There were no layoffs in my industry that I’m aware of. I wouldn’t change my career choice for anything. It has done me well. It’s a year or less of school and you can still go to college if need be. At the very least you will have a good paying job.
Idc what Ben Affleck or any other celebritiy think about anything. Idc.
Exactly. He married the same woman twice. It failed twice (not to mention, she dated Diddy).
I wonder how long he worked on that monologue and how much crack he smokes. Lack of quality doesn’t stop Hollywood now. Make more shows for you to watch rather than to teach your children about letters, numbers, colors, etc. rather than play an instrument or a sport yourself or watching the locals play as in Little League where the little kids play, the parents coach, and the kids aged out and are in high school umpire, etc. Hollywood went by the wayside during Covid and can keep sliding into the ocean as far as people in the real world who are laboring for a living so that they can raise their families to have a better life than they had or the same type of serendipity that may never come again. That is why Kamala lost, the working class have an agenda and it is saving America for at least one more generation!
4:50... AI can't make anything new... Newsflash, Ben! Neither does Hollywood!
AI would never have married JLO.

Thank you for the correction. I actually like being accountable too. The truth is the truth.
Integrity is soooo appreciated
What he didn't detail was the company spent 25% of its earnings dollars the taking care of all the families who lost loved ones ... Some 180 million dollars.
Hollywood is just like AI - it's just reproducing ideas that already exist, hence all the remakes and endless superhero crap.
Yep. For example, they just threw some of the iconic scenes of Gladiator into a mixer and added a dollop of CGI and some dialogue from the AI machine and viola! Gladiator II. No doubt to be followed with an even more CgI'd Gladiator III etc etc
AI may not be able to do Shakespeare but it could certainly generate something better than "Gigli".
True😂

😂😂😂😂 luvit
Lol😂
The difference between an apprentice, which Ben describes as a Craftsman, and a Craftsman is an important distinction. The first learns from the Craftsman the latter can create for himself and others that which hasn’t been created before. A Craftsman is the result of an apprentice becoming the artist. I am disappointed that he doesn’t understand such a simple concept and is unable to appreciate that a Craftsman is as much as an Artist as he himself would claim to be.
Ben’s hubris prevents him from having any respect for or understanding of craftsmanship in its many forms. He is, apparently, very impressed with the ‘skills’ that he appreciates in practitioners of his craft. However, he is incapable of recognizing that there are people of equal or greater talent in most, if not all, fields. Where there are humans, there will always be a drive to perfect a task. It may not be a drive that all people possess, but it is certainly one that many do experience. It, indeed, compels creativity and excellence in every task that people attempt to accomplish.
CNN and msnbc never tried to change
They stink MSM
The same behavior in every country for more than a century, creating 3RD world countries / " SANCTUARY " TO CRIMINAL CITIES, STATES AND NOW " SANCTUARY TO THE WHOLE U.S. Free to destroy countries from within !

Ben thinks a lot of himself.
Ben Afleck looks like he in speed or coke.
He’s probably having “roid rage” from taking steroids to bulk up for his next Batman movie🤔 like everything in Hollywood, Ben is fake and completely out of touch while simultaneously having an exaggerated sense of his own importance…
Pepsi > Coke

Love & Support The Rubin Report
Is Ben Afflect ‘high?’ Or is he on a ‘stage?’ He’s definitely ’acting?’ He was so animated, and quite over-the-top! Lost his message early. Please note, we’ve been watching cartoons since the beginning. It this Wylie Coyote’s slapstick’s inspiration? I trust you, Rubin… Not Your friend, Ben, on this one. We ALL know where this is going!
MSNBC destroyed themselves… Just like all the actors. Just like Ben did!
Affleck on crack!?? He's on something...
That’s what I thought - kind of jacked up.
And who is surprised by that?
Exactly! Sped and wired
Dave displays a wealth of perspectives on a wealth of subjects. Dave Rubin is a rising leader in the new media.
Ben is dead wrong. He thinks that there are "new ideas" that Ai cant crack. But he is wrong, there are no new ideas and he is narcissistic if he thinks his brain is so special that an ai cant make better stuff
IKR. I thought that he was going to say something profound. He is whistling past the graveyard. AI has already created literature indistinguishable between it and actual Shakespeare. AI is becoming increasingly sophisticated and within our lifetime it will be able to analyze the artist nuances of scripts and acting. Will be able to create lifelike representations of classic actors and create new cinema with them in it.
AI will eat us alive ON ALL FRONTS - youre a nerd born into , never left and never will leave youre petri dish
Dave, I'll pat you on the back for all youve done for our country. You should be proud of how and what you've done .
Thank you for your service!
Dave Rubin looking very demure today. 🎉 Keep going Mr. Rubin. We need honest content and you're appreciated.
Physicist, Michio Kaku explained Ai this way once when referring to how distant cosmic civilizations would find other life in the vastness of space.
A robot launched into space would seek out Goldie Locks zones, find a planetary body near a planet that could possibly have life or support life and land on that nearby planetary body where it would mine the resources to build a factory that builds more robots to send farther into space to find more life and build more robots to send farther still into space to build more robots to build more robots, etc.
Ben is an actor. He knows nothing of what he speaks. Ai is our undoing.
2001 A Space Odyssey.
I think Ben’s wrong about this one. He might just be holding on to hope for the future of his career.
I abhor Ben's antisemitic attitude towards Israel, and he's no different than Cenk Uygur, Raphael Warnock, Obama, AOC & Squad members in Congress.
I think Ben is actually spot on with an excellent high level understanding of how LLM's work under the hood. The bold new amazing AI that you envision is a ways off, or at least until the X-formers architecture is improved upon.
@ Thank you for that interesting comment- I agree with you. What I was referring to is that I think Hollywood actors think that they are more important to the future of film than they actually are.
@@blacksage81 If people care. In marketing, people can write far better than AI but the businesses don't want to pay for the extra quality. If AI is "good enough" -- and that's a very low bar -- they will run with the AI and will NOT pay for the talent it takes to have high-quality content.
You are spot on! I was a moderate democrat and I switched years ago. I started hearing innuendos, inferences, etc towards men - I thought, “No one is coming after my husband, sons, and grandsons”!
Ben is wrong. ai will go far beyond what he thinks it will.
unless im missing something, he seems to be right about this
We really don't know. There's a large marketing push behind AI, keep that in mind. The more these companies can convince the public (notably investors) that AI can do X, Y, and Z, the more money they can raise. They have a financial interest in selling promises, false or otherwise.
He’s clearly upset about AI, his abrupt interruption and then listing A,B,C details on how he thinks it will play out..😂😂..veins bulging from his neck and sweating….
Idk how. It’s impossible to replace that human spark of creativity. AI is a good worker, but doesn’t have a soul so isn’t great at making things that have a human feel. Ask yourself this… can you tell when an image or text is AI generated or human generated? Of course you can. There’s just intangible about it that you can feel.
@desertrose0601 but you are looking at this from the perspective of now. That's a shallow perspective as we are only getting started. Human creativity is always made up of our accumulated experiences. It's like chess. Computers can now beat Grand Masters, why? Are grandmasters lacking creativity?
That wasn't the real Ben Affleck.
Ben expresses the hubris of a self aggrandizing elitist.
We don't really care, Ben.
If AI is not going to replace creatives then creatives better step up their game. The writers strike was embarrassing considering the crap writing recently. At minimum it will weed out the creatives.
You are spot on. Need to work with ai.
You should be proud, Dave. You filled the void in my life left by Rush Limbaugh. No one else could really fill his shoes.
got no beef with BEN. Liked his movies. he is a good actor and a director. he is kind to people, especially to workers. not judging him based on his beliefs but glad he was able to realize the better and brighter path. everyone is entitled to his opinions - but the good thing is if there was a mistake made, it is justly corrected!
I would rather Biden stay on vacation at this point in time. He hasn’t done anything good for America in 4 years. Just leave quietly, please!
At least if he’s on vacation he might not break anything else on his way out… I once watched a neighbor get evicted, then he trashed the house, ripped wire out of the walls to sell. Biden’s rummaging through his toolbox at this point, about to tear the walls apart to spite us
"SpinCo" what an appropriate name for MSNBC!
Don’t worry about voting for Barack Obama we were all young ones and naïve
I think that was the first time I heard that republican on CNN where he got finish a sentence without being attacked by the others!
My spidey sense says Affleck was on something for that conversation
Human Beings, on Planet Earth, should not want technology to replace them.😮
AI can manipulate images and text... Ben's line of work. It cannot blow glass, forge a medeval sword, or turn a tree stump into a bear. Ben is replaceable by AI.
Ai wouldnt have married j lo😂
How about we bring back real people for customer service call centers? I hate having to go through all the choices on the menu, and none of them are what I need. I need a real person to speak to!
Absolutely. Customer service is horrible. All our operators are busy at the moment. .you mean the one guy in the bathroom.
Ben Affleck will be happy to help you!!! Coz he ain't gonna be an actor for long.
I love calling a pharmacy and you have to listen to their hours, the pharmacist’s lunch hour, then about their COVID shots and their flu shots, THEN you get to make a selection. Quit wasting my time!
The Scott Jennings clip ... The most shocking thing to me was they let him speak for something like a minute without interrupting him and disagreeing with him. I've never witnessed that before
😊
Novel idea, how about we take NO people in from other countries for awhile and concentrate on all the problems that American citizens are facing?
As an Argentinian, I can tell you people made fun of Javier Milei like you wouldn't imagine. Just because he was REAL. But he is also BRILLIANT. And you can believe everything he says, unlike politicians. That combination made him win the elections here. As he himself said, "the difference between a madman and a genius, is SUCCESS".
god, i can't listen to affleck...he is sooooo confident of himself...vomit.
Ben's assuming the movie going masses actually care about creative content. Show them some sex, vice, guns, turmoil and a hapless victim, then toss in a hero.. I think the record speaks for itself.
Tada! The only one in the comments seeing the truth. Yes, creatives make better content. But if the studios can make tons of money on trash, they will make trash and they will NOT pay creatives for "better quality."
Woke is just more content that might be new but hopefully too many dont want. Im watching looney tunes again at 56. Human nature will never change and some of us want the basic stuff

🔸How many face mimics can aflak do? 10? 20? 30?
Ai can do thausends.
🔸How creative is aflak by dialog creation?
Not at all. All he does reading scripts.
Ai is so creative to give hundreds of dialog options in 10 seconds.
📍Result: Aflak seemingly dumb.
Thank you Dave.
I hope they're all fired much sooner than a year from now.
He is high as a kite. Adderall would be my guess. Scripts is how the stars get around saying theyre on meth.
😂 Tbh it looks more like coke. Adderall is possible, if he just started it. Otherwise you’d need a very high dose (beyond prescribing guidelines) for a grown man to be that “revved up” bc patients build tolerance quickly.
@@scarletsletter4466 Good point. You could very well be right. Plus coke doesnt have as much stigma. I remember when everyone was trying to figure out what Charlie Sheen was on lol! That was so obvviously meth with the sunken facial features and gauntness. But yeah Ben was on something fo sho!
They're educated. They are not educated on the subjects they talk about. There have been background checks to buy guns for decades. Minors can't buy guns nor should they be able to. Minors shouldn't be able to request sex changes either, for the same reason. Being anti-cov1d vax is not being anti-vax. Other vaxs we use were made over 9 or more years.
I always remember the requirements that anti-police movement wanted. Around 70% had been in use since the 90's, when I went through the academy.
I’m not sure there’s anything Ben could say that would shock me at this point…. Let’s see!

Well said!
Too much Ben Affleck spouting whatever latest narrative he heard this week. Less Affleck talking on your show please Dave
If Beethoven were alive today would he use a digital synth? Yeah.
I'm sorry Dave, but someday Ai will make guys like you into janitors.
If all the jobs are replaced by AI we can't afford to buy your damn movies Ben.
Yep. Technological unemployment
Whoever was the Desantis campaign managers were terrible. He doesn't have to pretend to be anyone or anything. If he just would of been himself, he would of won. They turned him into a taking point tool. When he speaks from the heart, everyone would follow him, not his robotic planned talking point. He has great ideas and is not swayed. Be that, he wins!
Seems like AI will cause major increases in depression and crime unless they can find work for the people AI displaces.
Technological unemployment
I am not at all sure that was Ben Affleck commenting on AI. It was far too slick and intelligible. I think that was an AI rendition of Ben Affleck speaking of AI. While the intelligence of AI is totally fake, the stupidity of humanity is completely real!
Dave, I don't like pumpkin either but I do eat this side dish: Piineer Recipe of Pumpkin and Onions
Take a pumpkin or hard squash (NOT spaghetti)
Cut in half and scrape out the gross bits in the middle
Take a sharp knife and remove the hard outer hull
Cut up in chunks the size of a nickel
Cut up onion(s) to slices then halve down the middle
Place both on a cookie sheet
Drizzle on vegetable oil or beef tallow cut in small bits. The pioneers used lard
Drizzle on maple syrup
Stir it up to coat all pieces with fat and syrup
salt and pepper to taste
Bake until onions are caramelized and squash is soft when poked with a fork but it's even better when it starts to caramelize too. The higher the oven temp the more often you stir.
Why would anyone care about his opinion?
The best thing that would come from AI would be thate those actors would not spout there garbage political views
When I watch this Affleck interview it just comes across as Ben trying to sound like he knows what he’s talking about by moving his hands around a lot and throwing out a few niche terms related to the topic.
Dude is on drugs.
Could be.
Yep. My guess is aderall.
For once, I thought he actually sounded intelligent and articulate, I disagree with him however. AI's only limit is the data it has access to. If AI has no restrictions to data, it could easily replace all of Hollywood. Soon, you'll read about AGSI, and when that happens, it will replace just about everything that doesn't require physical human actions.
I believe that the greatest factor for human actors/directors/etc. will be the people as the masses, wanting human made products though nostalgia and/or activism against AI.
The Point Ben Affleck is making is chemistry AI, at least for now, can't duplicate the chemistry between actors, nor the writing, but the rest can be.
You're one of the few who get his drift.
It can’t discern the emotional effect of words, or how the change of intonation affects how it’s received
AI will not replace the creative types. What about CGI? They are replacing glass painters, visual effects staff,, miniatures, etc. CGI coupled with green screen is allowing for things to be filmed that couldn't years ago. Actors will eventually be relegated to voice actors.
I can’t believe they went with SPINCO! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 how appropriate
Ben clearly doesn’t know what he is talking about. It may not be in his lifetime, but AI will complete replace actors….Period. You can also tell by how agitated he got at the beginning, he doesn’t like AI going into the Hollywood realm…
True. And AI doesn’t need to “write Shakespeare” or make Kubrick or Hitchcock level films in order to be profitable. The vast majority of writing & cinema isn’t on that level
If we haven’t noticed, all the movie industry has been putting out are remakes with a different actor or are DEI rewrites of popular movies like Snow Woke and the 7 she/hers 🤦♂️
Ok Ben, let’s see if you can create new movies. If so, it’s about time. We are ready for new. So far all the new movie releases look and sound like Taylor Swift music…all the same
Twitter getting more valuable by the minute ...
I read “Don’t burn this book” last night. I feel like you’re a personal friend now, Dave ❤
So AI will allow us to make the movie equivalent of mixtapes for our loved ones. The 80's really are coming back.
BA is naive to think his industry is safe… we are all in jeopardy dude. What a narcissist
Great show 👏 👍
Reporting and journalism was all about finding out and reporting news. Now it is just your view of politics, no news no truth very sad
Everything is biased and corrupted. And everything is political. Everything can only be political if politicians control some part of every aspect of life. And people feel free? Do as you’re told or auffer the consequences sometimes only socially through social norms
Total bs. Stickley furniture would be last thing that ai can do. It is awesome. Rather, ai will replace him first. 😂😂😂
At the heart of all creativity is exactly that...HEART. AI will never have heart. It might be smart and be able to create or recreate individuals or write a script, but it's the chemistry and connection between individual personalities that allow us express ourselves in unique unpredictable ways. There is a lot of improvisation in tv/ film, based on being in the moment and in relationship to other cast members and crew. Also a lot of mistakes and accidents that actors have also make it into the final cut because it benefits the character or plot in someway. This need for AI to be perfect will take the fun out of everything. The movie the Princess Bride is a great example. Billy Crystal was told to improvise and wasn't given any lines. The chemistry and play between him and the crew created one of the most iconic characters and he was only in the movie for 5 minutes. AI will never measure up to talent like that.
I think our human-y “heart” will be changed by ai-generated art. Look how TV changed us, we’re insane and relate differently with one another. I’m afraid that life will imitate art, and art will no longer be an expression of humanity
Affleck is correct in his assessment of AI limitations but what he doesn’t understand is that already in film and music a pall pf mediocrity is being accepted because less and less artful work is being produced to highlight the difference.His beloved DEI has made sure of that by robbing art in film of its merit.
