On today's episode of the J-WAT Podcast, producers Alex Watson and Tim Drake talk about the the cyber elephant in the room... AI. If you've listened to the podcast, you know we are not fond of AI being used in film. Over the past few weeks this topic has dominated the new cycle with a new AI "actress" allegedly being courted by agencies. We read real actress Betty Gilpin's letter to the AI "actress" and discuss how we see AI hurting film and our appreciation for the hard work we put in to making films that will be lost by using AI. This was a very heartfelt discussion as it is something we are very passionate about. Let us know your thoughts!
