Guillermo del Toro says he'd rather die' than use AI in his films
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum."
"Guillermo del Toro has made his thoughts on the use of AI in filmmaking very clear, saying he would rather die than work with artificial intelligence. The triple Oscar winner drew parallels between the tech bros who are using the technology to the arrogance of Frankenstein, the Mary Shelley character who he is bringing to screens with his new Netflix film. Speaking to NPR, the Pan's Labyrinth and Shape of Water filmmaker, 61, said that natural stupidity is what drives most of the world's worst"

Guillermo del Toro, 61, publicly rejects generative AI for filmmaking, likening tech entrepreneurs' arrogance to Frankenstein and calling for a pause to consider AI's consequences.
