It was made by AI, would you want to see it or even pay to see it?
We’re at the stage with AI where it could be done. Let’s say for example, everyone involved supported the idea, ended their original writing, jokes, voices, etc
No thanks. Ghostbusters happened by people coming together to craft something that had never been seen before. Ingenuity in various crafts and art forms shaped by years of exceptional work and education.
Generative AI is a damn joke. We’re racing towards mediocrity and stagnation at blistering speeds because grownups with too much brain rot are continually blown away by the next shiny thing. Prompting and waiting for a server farm to spit back to you isn’t anything more than slop, capitalism run wild. Hard pass.
I think most of us have moved past the “Generative AI is mind-blowing” phase from several years ago and we’re all well into the “GenAI is planet-destroying soulless theft slop” phase.
If it’s not made by humans, I don’t want to see it.
I’m honestly disappointed by how many fans/franchises keep sharing this slop on social media considering how crucial human creativity was to the success of Ghostbusters. This is why we were all so thrilled when Frozen Empire had a real human performing Slimer on a real physical set rather than a fully CGI ghost.
Give me a wonky fan film made with love over this slop any day. I don’t care if the proton packs are made of cardboard.
The amount of slop I see from franchises really grinds my gears. Spend hours and hours building packs, suits, cars…just to slop it up with Meta AI. Insanity
We’re absolutely not at the stage where AI could do this, but also no.
I would be curious to replace Dave Coulier’s lines with an AI Lorenzo Music in S3&4 of Real GB, but I also appreciate that may be a ghoulish suggestion and not worth the effort.
