Fans Unhappy Over AI-Generated SECRET INVASION Opening
By Movieguide® Contributor
Marvel’s SECRET INVASION received backlash after they confessed the opening credits were generated by artificial intelligence.
Ali Selim told Deadline, “When we reached out to the AI vendors, that was part of it — it just came right out of the shape-shifting, Skrull world identity, you know? Who did this? Who is this?”
However, Selim admitted he didn’t really understand how AI worked.
He talked about the process, “We would talk to them about ideas and themes and words, and then the computer would go off and do something. And then we could change it a little bit by using words, and it would change.”
Many social media users have voiced their opinions on the use of AI, claiming it’s taking the place of writers and artists in the industry.
Jon Lam, a storyboard artist, wrote on Twitter, “This is salt in the wounds of all Artists and Writers in the WGA strike.”
“I really loved the first episode of secret invasion but them using AI ‘art’ for their intro is just wack. Do better Marvel,” another user wrote.
AI is making waves in all industries. As Movieguide® recently reported:
DIRTY JOBS star Mike Rowe says blue-collar workers have nothing to fear from the rise of AI, or “artificial intelligence.”
AI has become more and more advanced over the years, and many are worried it will dominate industries and replace human workers.
According to Rowe, those with “dirty” jobs don’t have anything to worry about.
“People used to say that the robots are going to destroy skilled labor. Well, not really,” Rowe said during an appearance on Fox’s THE BIG MONEY SHOW. “I haven’t seen any plumbing robots. I haven’t seen any electrician robots. And I don’t think we’re going to see any artificial intelligence in the skilled trades to that degree. You can’t stop it. All you can do is decide to freak out completely or not.”
Experts agree with Rowe. A Goldman Sachs report predicted that 300 million jobs are at risk of being replaced by AI, but jobs that require manual labor or work outside will not be majorly impacted.
