Supporters recognize the technology\u2019s convenience\u2014enhancing work efficiency and avoiding human error, including bias in decision-making. On the other hand, critics raise concerns about the ethics, job displacement, and environmental issues AI may bring to the world. Both sides present valid arguments about AI in general, but what about in the realm of film and filmmaking that utilize these tools? It is just as complex and multi-faceted as the argument presented above.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the early days of filmmaking, societal anxieties about machines were famously reflected in Fritz Lang\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Metropolis <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(1927), which depicted fears of AI as a tool of control and dehumanization. It is still, in fact, an existing trope that we can see in modern cinema; from the explicit portrayal of robot domination in the Wachowski Sisters\u2019 <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Matrix<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (1999) to a more nuanced depiction in Alex Garland\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ex Machina <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(2014). Of course, some movies try to challenge this notion with unfortunately minimal impact, especially given how recently intelligent machines posed a concern to the film industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The emergence of ChatGPT in the early 2020s and the groundbreaking development of deepfake technology pose a job threat to screenwriters and actors, raising issues toward job security and ethical concerns regarding privacy and consent. Yet, I feel the impact also falls on us\u2013the audience\u2013who watch these films. If this trend continues, the content we consume could increasingly be shaped by data processing, resulting in generic, lifeless stories without any emotional core for viewers to connect with; which we already have plenty of even without the assistance of AI.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That is why I was beyond surprised when one of the Minikino <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Film Week 10 programmers, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/minikino.org\/articles\/author\/bintangpanglima\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bintang Panglima<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, recommended a short film program called <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PUZZLED<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014a collection of shorts revolving around modern technology including films that utilize AI. The program aimed to showcase how these films had \u2018found new paths and forms.\u2019 It offered me a chance to explore how far AI has influenced the industry; an opportunity to solidify, challenge, or shift my stance toward this evolving invention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>AI as filmmaking tools<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rachel Mclean\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Duck<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (2024) directly challenges the audience to question their standpoint toward deepfake. On the surface, it appears to be a stylistic homage to the classic Bond whodunnit, mixed with Hollywood pop culture references throughout the film; all utilizing the AI deepfake technology that evokes an uncanny valley effect. Despite my initial skepticism, I was surprised to find myself enjoying this short for its fun, quirky encounters that would be impossible to see in live-action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chaos ensues as the main character, deepfake Connery Bond, experiences surreal circumstances of ever-changing alternate events, multiple shadow clones of Marilyn Monroe, and a surprising reunion of Bond actors across generations. However, deep within the comical occurrence serves a deeper meaning, revealed when deepfake Connery Bond reaches his limits and experiences an existential crisis. I sympathize with Connery Bond, relating to the rapid development of AI technology, which I, too, struggle to keep up with. It leaves me feeling disoriented in my understanding of a world I once thought was much more simple. The inclusion of meta-commentary deserves praise, as Mclean skillfully utilizes AI tools throughout the whole runtime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Le Quynh Ahn\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Goodnight Baby<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (2023), in contrast with the program\u2019s opening, utilizes AI for a short amount of time, which plays an integral part in the film\u2019s story and message. The live-action short featured a clip titled \u2018The Last Fish on Earth\u2019 which tells the story of a woman dressed as a stingray rejecting her mother\u2019s funeral preparation, which suddenly turned into a soothing and therapeutic A.I. animation. The video went viral, and the creator, Gia Gia, was invited to a talk show with the agenda of discussing the clip she made. Simultaneously, she felt disappointed inside, as it was not her fashion videos\u2014those she had worked diligently on for years\u2014that had put her into the spotlight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In contrast to \u2018The Last Fish on Earth\u2019, we as the audience could feel the rawness and genuineness of her outfit reviews. However, despite the inauthenticity that most AI videos contain, what matters in the algorithm is audience retention. Soon enough, there will come a day when the internet is filled with AI-generative content, prompting creators like Gia Gia to give up on their dreams of being passionate content creators due to market disinterest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ironically, for a film that seems to criticize AI, both films utilized the potential of technology well in delivering their stories and messages. Showcasing how films utilizing AI could still retain the author\u2019s vision for the audience to be invested; even if doubts toward ethics on deepfakes and environmental concerns persist. Yet I do wonder can this program push further by shedding a positive light on AI to the audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>A Reflection On Humanity<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jan Bitzen\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bye Bear <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(2023) tells the story of robots gathering in a rundown motel, inviting us into their farewell party for one of their kind before they descend into the wilderness. It isn\u2019t those wild and loud parties but rather a soothing one; accompanied by colorful settings, slow-motion shots, and cool \u201880s techno music. Some might argue that <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bye Bear<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a case study of style over substance with almost nothing to offer. However, deep toward the audiovisual experience, there is a reflection of ourselves that exists through these robots.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having dreams to live as someone else or something great. Bonds are made through sharing similar interests. Parting due to strong desires for change that force us to move toward new environments. What these intelligent machines show us throughout the 11-minute runtime feels similar to the experience that most of us experienced in one stage of our lives. Granted, these robots might not resemble our physiques and do have some odd desires. But perhaps, we are not so different from them. After all, it is us, the humans, that created them isn\u2019t it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pleasuredora <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(dir. Mark Prebble, 2024) strengthened this case as well, telling the story of Dora, a glitchy AI love companion nearing the end of her lifespan, and plans to be scrapped into a junkyard after finishing her last customer, a middle-aged man named Colin. The exchange started as a comedy for us viewers, only to turn into a deep conversation as Colin opened up about his marital struggles and feelings of being lost in life. Astonishingly, the humanoid robot sympathizes with him and shares her desire to live much longer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What happens on screen isn\u2019t the typical threatening monster of humanity&#8217;s failed creation, but portrayed as something compassionate and understanding machines that provide comfort and solution, if only for a brief moment<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> However, the warmth doesn\u2019t last long, as Dora\u2019s service reaches its time limit. Instead of repaying Dora\u2019s action, Colin leaves her alone in the futuristic room; questioning who is the real monster in this situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ending of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pleasuredora <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">made me reflect that perhaps I am similar to Colin. For a long time, I have been antagonizing AI due to how cinema portrays intelligent robots as another step toward dehumanization. Even when AI models became a trend in the 2020s, I never considered them tools for filmmaking. However, it would be hypocritical to denounce AI\u2019s functionality, especially for someone who uses it on a day-to-day basis. From using GPS to guide and help me reach my destination to saving a lot of time proofreading this article, I acknowledge that I have taken AI tools for granted. Yet it is important to treat the machine merely as assistance; especially in filmmaking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There has been a rising trend of AI-made \u201cfilms\u201d which could be categorized as misuse and exploitation of the technology. Recalling those encounters made me realize my initial disdain toward AI started after seeing such a soulless product. This program is different, however, since these filmmakers intervene in the progress with a human touch. Fueled with strong artistic intention and belief that make these shorts alive with heart and emotionally resonant for the audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It seems that the four films presented in the PUZZLED program have shed new light on my perspective toward AI; both in its use in filmmaking and in how its functionality reflects us as creators<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Of course, not to downplay the valid concerns and dangers of AI, as the filmmaker explicitly highlights in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Duck <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">with the deepfake ethics or the open-ended consequences of Dora\u2019s liberation in<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Pleasuredora<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Editor: Bintang Panglima<\/em><\/p>\n<h5>The writer is one of the four selected participants in the Minikino Hybrid Internship for Film Festival Writers (April \u2013 September 2024).
