Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist isn’t just another movie—it’s a visual stunner that’s got everyone talking, not just about its looks but about the big, messy question it throws at us: How much tech is too much when it comes to making art? 🎠And let’s be honest, it’s a question that’s as tricky as trying to explain why you love that weird indie film no one else gets.
Here’s the kicker: the film uses AI to tweak voices and dream up buildings, which sounds cool until you start thinking about privacy, what’s real, and how easy it might be to fake it all. With the Academy mulling over new rules to keep AI in check, it’s like we’re all suddenly in a sci-fi movie, wondering if our future is more ‘creative utopia’ or ‘robot takeover of the arts.’
Irony alert: The Brutalist is all about bouncing back and aiming high, kind of like how the film industry is trying to figure out how to deal with AI without losing its soul. Using AI to make dialogue sound more authentic? Sure, why not. But then you start to wonder—where do we stop? At what point does the tech stop helping and start hijacking the human touch that makes stories worth telling?
“Talking about AI in the industry is like bringing up politics at Thanksgiving—controversial, but necessary. We need to hash out what AI can do for us without ruining the meal.”
This quote nails it. It’s not that we’re scared of AI (well, maybe a little), but more about making sure it doesn’t steal the show from the human creativity that’s the real star. The Brutalist is like that friend who starts a debate at 2 AM—it’s got us all thinking hard about where we’re headed.
At the end of the day, the fuss over The Brutalist isn’t just about one film. It’s a sneak peek into the bigger picture: how we’re all trying to navigate this brave new world where tech and creativity collide. And let’s face it, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.
