Los Angeles, Dec 7 Hollywood actor Adrien Brody has shared his opinion on the growing debate over the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the film industry.
The actor insists that AI will never “replace emotion”, reports ‘Female First UK’.
The 52-year-old star won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in last year’s movie The Brutalist – which faced criticism for using the technology, but insists that it will never be able to replicate the authenticity of an emotional performance.
Speaking at the Red Sea Film Festival in Saudi Arabia, Adrien said, “There are new tools that are now available that will definitely enhance all our abilities to do great work, but there is nothing to replace emotion”.
He further mentioned, “Even if you can fabricate it or whatever, we really should always cherish and support the creative process and the beauty of filmmaking, but that’s not to say that an evolution of that which is inevitable is bad. We have choices in what we choose as individuals to agree to ingest”.
As per ‘Female First UK’, the actor shared that it was stressful shooting ‘The Brutalist’ over a 23-day period but refused to “hold back” in his performance as architect Laszlo Toth.
He said, “There is no way to say, ‘I’m going to hold back today’. The way I hold back is, I have no personal life when I’m filming. In as much as I love the people I work with, I don’t hang out with my actors or crew when I have heavy lifting or emotional work”.
He continued, “I have my own techniques to have the space to give it when needed. You have to hope you’re able to. It’s not a science, you’re not a machine. Some days you’re not gonna be the best, and you have to find ways of being able to snap yourself out of whatever the personal distractions are, whatever the complexity is on the set that day. Whatever you are, you have to deliver work. That is the responsibility of the actor”.
Adrien is a two-time Best Actor Oscar winner, having also claimed the honour for his role in ‘The Pianist’ but insists that his desire to act remains strong despite awards recognition.
