During a recent conversation with Google CEO Eric Schmidt at the Berggruen Salon in Los Angeles, Kutcher, 46, revealed that he has been testing a beta version of OpenAI’s generative video tool Sora — and thinks it’s a step in the right direction for filmmaking.
'Why would you go out and shoot an establishing shot of a house in a television show when you could just create the establishing shot for $100? To go out and shoot it would cost you thousands of dollars,' he continued. 'Action scenes of me jumping off of this building, you don't have to have a stunt person go do it — you could just go do it .'
Kutcher claimed that those still using the traditional way of filmmaking will inevitably have to up their game in order to compete with the latest AI. She continued, “When you take ANY humans off of a collaborative and creative pursuit you literally lose the humanity. A hollow, dumbass, pointless shell. TV will have the same artistic merit as dish soap.”
