    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Leonardo DiCaprio


    sheetsadam1 — 3 months ago(December 09, 2025 09:03 PM)

    Leonardo DiCaprio expressed his doubts regarding AI taking over Hollywood during an interview with Time magazine, which has named the Oscar winner its entertainer of the year. While DiCaprio “mourns the fact that talented and experienced people could lose their jobs” because of AI, as reported by Time, he also believes AI is incapable of having humanity and thus can’t be “authentically” considered art.
    “It could be an enhancement tool for a young filmmaker to do something we’ve never seen before,” DiCaprio said of AI. “I think anything that is going to be authentically thought of as art has to come from the human being. Otherwise — haven’t you heard these songs that are mashups that are just absolutely brilliant and you go, ‘Oh my God, this is Michael Jackson doing the Weeknd,’ or ‘This is funk from the A Tribe Called Quest song “Bonita Applebum,” done in, you know, a sort of Al Green soul-song voice, and it’s brilliant.’ And you go, ‘Cool.’ But then it gets its 15 minutes of fame and it just dissipates into the ether of other internet junk. There’s no anchoring to it. There’s no humanity to it, as brilliant as it is.”
    Many filmmakers in Hollywood have come out swinging against AI in recent weeks. Guillermo del Toro made headlines at the Gotham Awards for saying “**** AI.” Speaking to NPR a month prior, the Oscar winner said he’d rather die than have to use AI in his movies.
    “AI, particularly generative AI — I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested,” del Toro said. “I’m 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. … The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I’d rather die.’”
    James Cameron recently told ComicBook.com that he banned the use of generative AI when making his “Avatar” sequels, explaining: “We honor and celebrate actors. We don’t replace actors.”
    Emma Thompson, meanwhile, lost it on “The Late Show” in October when host Stephen Colbert asked about her feelings regarding “the coming AI revolution” in Hollywood. Thompson, an Oscar-winning screenwriter thanks to “Sense & Sensibility,” is especially irate when it comes to AI chatbots asking to rewrite her work.
    “Intense irritation. I cannot begin to tell you,” Thompson said about her feelings on AI. “Because I write longhand on a pad, old script actually, because I believe that there is a connection between the brain and the hand. So it’s very important to me. And then when I’ve written something, I will put it into a Word document. And recently, the Word document is constantly saying, ‘Would you like me to rewrite that for you?’ And so I end up just saying, ’I don’t need you to rewrite what I’ve just written, will you **** off?! Just **** off!” I’m so annoyed."

      I'd have thought he'd be more concerned with the energy it produces which causes global warming.
      I'm guess the P Diddy threat has gone now, so he doesn't have to say much about that any more

        I wouldn't expect anyone to be able to pontificate on all of the countless issues with AI in a single paragraph. Hopefully he will use his influence to push for a global AI nonproliferation treaty removing the industry from the private sector entirely.

          I'm fairly certain that technology focusing on high performance, zero error, secure and fully traceable, highly decentralised, curated data which is cheap and doesn't unionise will always have a place at the centre of the private sector
          People; their bellies, what their eyes watch, their children - not so much
          The only use for a person is their wallet, and that's already been migrated to phones.
          I'd say their vote counts, but we both know you don't think that's the case and so what can we do?!

            well, as long as ai can never properly replace actors, that's what's really important
            not that they won't keep trying

              I do think the theatrical and performative are the only aspects left of humanity with any value to humanity
              Charisma goes a long way

                Modern Hollywood can never be art because it lacks humanity
