Director Gore Verbinski is worried about how artificial intelligence is impacting creative fields. He points out that AI seems to be focused on tasks other than tackling major global challenges, like finding cures for illnesses or advancing space exploration.
Instead of focusing on technical aspects, the technology is being applied to creative fields like storytelling, art, and music. As Verbinski explained to reporters, it feels like the technology will do everything for you, potentially removing the need for human effort.
His new movie, Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, is a time-travel story featuring an AI villain and a cautionary look at the risks of highly developed technology.
The movie centers around a time traveler, played by Sam Rockwell, who comes to the present day with a warning: artificial intelligence will wipe out humanity in the future. He then assembles a team to try and stop this from happening. Attendees at Fantastic Fest, including Dexerto, say the film successfully blends both the funny and frightening aspects of our current path.
Gore Verbinski, the director who hasn’t made a film in almost a decade since Pirates of the Caribbean, felt the story was timely and important. He explained, “I believe it’s crucial for this movie to be released and experienced with an audience right now.”
Verbinski has complicated feelings about AI, acknowledging it’s a force that can’t be stopped. He described feeling both worried and enthusiastic, but ultimately admitted it’s a bit scary. He explained that the title of his movie represents his approach: you can choose to disregard AI, fear it, or embrace it.
