AI-generated images though? That’s a can of worms that shouldn’t have been opened. Misinformation and devaluing art is what it leads to, and little more. Definitely more trouble than it’s worth.
Which brings me to Late Night with the Devil. This is a horror-comedy film being released by IFC that’s garnered some positive buzz lately, garnering an endorsement from the one and only Stephen King and a rare 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes. It has a fun concept, a promising cast, and generally seems like an all-around fun time.
The problem? Instead of hiring artists to bring their vision to life, the film reportedly features obviously AI-generated visuals throughout, which the producers have confirmed. That’s one less job given to a talented artist and one more shoddy piece of artificial, inhuman nothingness with too many fingers in this world.
A Letterboxd reviewer of this film wisely advised viewers to not let this film be the start of accepting this kind of behavior in the entertainment industry. It may seem harmless for now, but the creep will set in until it doesn’t even take people to make movies anymore, and nobody cares. Send people a message that this isn’t okay. That we expect real artists, not Sam Altman, to be supported.
Thank you. And to the producers of this movie: do better.
