Ben Affleck Sets Limits on AI Tools for His New Film "Animals"

Ben Affleck has explained the rules he follows when using artificial intelligence on his new film, "Animals," according to The Hollywood Reporter. He said he would not use any AI system that was trained on copyrighted material. He also said he would not use one built from the work of his peers or of artists he admires. In his account, using AI on the film does not mean creating artificial performers or taking the place of people who work on it. For readers in Beverly Hills and across Los Angeles, where much of the film industry lives and works, this is one filmmaker's public account of where he draws the line on a new tool.
