THBen Affleck is opening up about his complicated relationship with artificial intelligence.
The actor and director recently admitted that seeing early versions of generative video actually scared him because of what the technology is capable of doing.
He was worried that these tools were being built by engineers and scientists who did not really understand the artistic side of filmmaking.
Instead of just watching from the sidelines he decided to take action.
He quietly founded a startup called InterPositive which focuses on using AI to help with the technical parts of making a movie like fixing lighting or removing stunt wires.
Unlike other tools that try to create video from scratch his company uses a production's own footage to help the director.
Netflix just acquired the company and Ben Affleck will be staying on as a senior advisor.
It shows that even people who are skeptical of AI are finding ways to use it to protect the craft of storytelling.
