The Times U.K. recently featured Claire Foy for her part in the film. It is based on Helen MacDonald’s 2014 novel about how she had adopted and cared for a goshawk to deal with her father’s unexpected death. “It would be shit,” Foy said in response to the interviewer’s suggestion that the movie might use an AI-generated hawk in the not-too-distant future.
“I just find it very sad,” she concluded, referring to the declining quantity of performing opportunities for newcomers. “I have no interest in watching or reading anything by AI.”
In response to a question about whether actresses worry about becoming “obsolete,” she said that viewers and entrants will determine how the entertainment industry develops in the future.
“Well, only if there is an appetite for people to watch that stuff, if the younger generation says this is just the world we live in. But I don’t get it. And I’ll be very disappointed in my fellow humans if that happens — if they want to watch glorified animation,” she declared.
Several well-known filmmakers, including Guillermo del Toro, Celine Song, and Denis Villeneuve, have denounced the use of generative AI in the filmmaking process as discussions about AI continue at a rapid speed.
