"My concern is not artificial intelligence, but natural stupidity. I think that's what drives most of the world's worst features,"
"AI, particularly generative AI - I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. 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.'"
Guillermo del Toro will not use generative AI in future projects and has no desire to adopt it. He frames his concern as 'natural stupidity' rather than artificial intelligence and says that natural stupidity drives many of the world's worst features. Del Toro states he is uninterested in generative AI and hopes to stay uninterested until he dies, noting his age of 61. Frankenstein's monster is noted as manmade. Filmmakers are divided on AI's workplace role; the Russo brothers used AI for voice modulation in The Electric State, and an attempt has been made to introduce an AI actress, Tilly Norwood.
