George Miller, the creator of the Mad Max series, recently spoke highly of artificial intelligence at a film festival in Australia focused on AI. As a member of the festival jury, he is set to evaluate films produced using AI technology, which he fully supports. Miller sees AI as a dynamic tool that can greatly benefit the filmmaking process.
In an interview with The Guardian, Miller expressed his belief that AI is the most rapidly evolving tool in image creation with motion. He described AI as a permanent presence in the industry that has the potential to revolutionize filmmaking. The director’s curiosity about AI led him to participate in the festival, where he sees AI as a “modern renaissance” that allows artists to constantly review and enhance their work.
According to Miller, the current debate surrounding AI in the arts revolves around finding a balance between human creativity and machine capability. He believes that this discussion mirrors past moments in art history and is excited to see how AI will continue to shape the creative landscape.
