The latest films of director Damien Chazelle, BabylonFocuses on a time of great change and upheaval in Hollywood history. The movie (see what Erich Eisenberg thought of the epic) tells the story of the transition from silent films to “talkies” and how the change turned the lives of some actors upside down. So naturally, while pressing for the movie, the cast was asked in an interview what the “next big thing” in the industry would be. Almost everyone (Margot Robbie and Jean Smart in particular) has raised concerns about AI-driven deepfakes and the implications for using the technology in the future of movies.
Some of her classmates joined Margot Robbie Babylon costars in Electronic warfare is around the table A video series interview, where she revealed that she was discussing her fear of deepfakes with fellow actor Diego Calva. the suicide squad The actress said she dreaded the day studios might take actors’ faces, making their job obsolete. Robbie told EW:
And we want, will they just take our faces, and we won’t go to work anymore? So creepy.
At first glance, it may seem that the I’m Tonya The star is extreme. However, what you fear is closer to reality than science fiction. Recently Bruce Willis He retired from acting Because he was diagnosed with aphasia. However, the action star appeared in a fake commercial and rumors of him being sold out deepfake rights running around. Really creepy.
Margot Robbie wasn’t the only one commenting on the potential impact of deepfakes on the future of acting. Jane Smart joked that the only way she would allow her likeness to be used was if her children were “richer than that”. the design women The actress appears to be highlighting the situation by saying that she does not want to appear in adult films in the future. However, it’s not hard to read between the lines and see that she also seems concerned about the prospects of AI-generated images being used for her likeness. smart said:
Unless my kids are getting richer from it. Definitely. In this case, everything is fine [joking]. I don’t want to be in 3000 porn.
Deepfake uses digital technology and many photos of the star (found on the Internet and in movie databases) to create an image or video of a famous person and superimpose it on top of another actor. It can make it seem as if the actor is doing just about anything. In this deepfake tom cruisethe video shows that the Mission: Impossible Najm enters the room before he trips and falls. The implications of this technology are very worrying. The big Hollywood studios also used the same deepfakes technology Get rid of the classic charactersFor example, Princess Leia in the Star Wars universe.
Deepfake use in pornography has been rife and raises the question of consent. A few years ago, we reported on a comedian Kristen Bell’s feelings regarding several apparent deepfakes It is posted on adult content sites without their permission. The actress revealed that she feels deepfakes should be part of a larger conversation about sexual relations, adult sites, and the types of content they’re allowed to post on their sites.
While fake celebrity porn has been around on the internet for a long time, I believe that the relatively new phenomenon of deepfakes should be scrutinized not only by celebrities but by the average individual as well. As technology improves, making it more difficult to distinguish between deepfakes and an actual photo, and the technology becomes more and more available to the average individual, it becomes starkly apparent that the effects could be catastrophic.
In a world where revenge porn has become so prevalent, what’s to stop those with ill intentions from putting an unwilling participant into compromising positions with an AI assistant? Fortunately, as of 2022, most states have laws governing revenge porn, making it illegal to produce and distribute non-consensual pornography. Why should adult content generated by AI without the consent of all participants be any different?
Deepfakes are scary, and we should all be paying close attention to the technology and its implications. If there are any future updates regarding the laws surrounding the use of AI technology, we here at CinemaBlend will update you. Babylon Now showing in cinemas.
