Sidney Falco’s famous quote captures the essence: “The cat is in the bag, and the bag is in the river.”
Essentially, it means it’s all over, totally finished.
Opposition to AI seems pretty much futile at this point.
I guess it’s worth noting that AI is, um, becoming more and more pivotal in our lives, as highlighted in the recent discussion surrounding young washington, which, I think, is proving popular.
In a surprising twist, Netflix is reportedly bringing Gene Wilder back, virtually, to portray Willy Wonka.
This fully AI-produced film premiered last month at the renowned Tribeca Film Festival and was made for a mere $2,000.
Now, there’s also this upcoming film featuring a completely AI-generated actress, titled It’s out of position.
According to a report by variety, this will be Particle 6’s main AI feature. They’ve designed it as a collaboration between traditional filmmakers, like directors and writers, and AI specialists. CEO and founder Elaine van der Velden mentioned, “This film will genuinely mix humor and chaos while exploring deeper themes about identity and our collective apprehensions around AI. Life definitely imitates art.”
This raises a question: what distinguishes this from, say, toy story 5?
What’s the difference, really, between Tilly Norwood and Buzz Lightyear?
Honestly, it seems there isn’t one.
Both originated from human creativity, given life through technology. They exist in the same digital sphere.
The main disparity between AI and CGI is speed and cost. That’s why AI’s momentum is hard to halt; critics are, metaphorically speaking, already “cats in the bag in the river.”
Regardless of budget, misaligned is significantly cheaper than live-action films.
Ultimately, investors in misaligned can feel assured that Tilly Norwood won’t risk becoming a polarizing figure like some current stars do.
If it seems like we’re at the brink of an AI wave, well, we truly are, and there’s so much more creativity left to unfold. Especially from creators who, perhaps out of nowhere, come up with studio-quality work, bypassing traditional channels.
Once, the studio system was beneficial for honing storytelling skills. But now, it feels disconnected from the audience—producing subpar content. It seems like studios exist predominantly to push certain narratives that don’t resonate well with ordinary people.
Here’s to change!
Here’s to AI!
