\n\tGuillermo del Toro<\/a> shared an emphatic message about artificial intelligence in filmmaking while accepting the Vanguard Tribute for \u201cFrankenstein\u201d at Monday night\u2019s Gotham Awards: \u201cFuck AI.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFlanked by stars Jacob Elordi<\/a> and Oscar Isaac<\/a>, de Toro opened his acceptance speech by paying homage to Mary Shelley\u2019s immortal horror story. Del Toro said when he first picked up the book at age 11, he knew he would one day adapt it to film.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI understood that back then, through her work and the first glimpse of Boris Karloff, that I did not belong in the world the way my parents, the way the world expected me to fit,\u201d de Toro said. \u201cThat my place was in a faraway land inhabited only by monsters and misfits. They have been my kin ever since.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe continued, \u201cSo to return to this tale now at 61 with artists as extraordinary as Oscar and Jacob has been truly one of the greatest privileges of my life, and in them, I found another family.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter brief remarks from Elordi and Isaac, del Toro returned to the podium to honor the artisans who handcrafted the world of \u201cFrankenstein\u201d and to denounce AI in Hollywood.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019d like to tell the rest of our extraordinary cast and our crew that the artistry of all of them shines on every single frame of this film that was willfully made by humans, for humans,\u201d del Toro added. \u201cThe designers, builders, make-up, wardrobe team, cinematographers, composers, editors, this tribute belongs to all of them. I would like to extend our gratitude and say: Fuck AI.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDel Toro\u2019s \u201cFrankenstein\u201d premiered in August at the Venice Film Festival, where it received a rapturous 13-minute standing ovation<\/a>. The film premiered on Netflix on Oct. 17. Come Oscar time, \u201cFrankenstein\u201d is expected to compete in nine categories,<\/a> including best picture, best supporting actor for Elordi, best adapted screenplay and best production design. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Guillermo del Toro shared an emphatic message about artificial intelligence in filmmaking while accepting the Vanguard Tribute for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":170326,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[220,218,219,9403,61,60,9404,9405,80],"class_list":{"0":"post-170325","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-artificialintelligence","11":"tag-guillermo-del-toro","12":"tag-ie","13":"tag-ireland","14":"tag-jacob-elordi","15":"tag-oscar-isaac","16":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/170325","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=170325"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/170325\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/170326"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=170325"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=170325"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=170325"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
