Paul Schrader doesn\u2019t give a flying thought to what others think. He is ready to explore artificial intelligence in filmmaking, telling Vanity Fair<\/a> that he has the \u201cperfect script to do all AI.\u201d<\/p>\n

We know him as the writer of \u201cTaxi Driver,\u201d and \u201cRaging Bull,\u201d and director of \u201cFirst Reformed\u201d and \u201cBlue Collar,\u201d but Schrader is convinced that films \u201care going to be more and more AI,\u201d adding, \u201cI think we\u2019re only two years away from the first AI feature.\u201d<\/p>\n

He elaborated: \u201cI was just on the phone with someone today about a script I had, and I said, \u2018You know, this would be a perfect script to do all AI.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Chances are Schrader won\u2019t get to make his next film in AI, unless he wants to be shunned and blacklisted by his industry cohorts, but he seems dead-set on the idea, telling Vanity Fair that embracing the technology is \u201cjust a tool.\u201d<\/p>\n

When you\u2019re an author, you have to describe someone\u2019s reaction. You use a code \u2014 you use a code of words, a certain number of letters, and so forth, and you express their facial reaction. An actor has their own code. Well, now you\u2019re a pixelator, and you can create the face, and you can create the emotion on the face, and you can sculpt it the same way an author sculpts the reaction in a novel or a story.<\/p>\n

Schrader has long been open to AI in filmmaking. He frequently posts AI-generated images of himself on Facebook and has admitted to using ChatGPT for script ideas.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019M STUNNED,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI just asked chatgpt for \u2018an idea for Paul Schrader film.\u2019 Then Paul Thomas Anderson. Then Quentin Tarantino. Then Harmony Korine. Then Ingmar Bergman. Then Rossellini. Lang. Scorsese. Murnau. Capra. Ford. Speilberg [sic]. Lynch. Every idea chatgpt came up with (in a few seconds) was good. And original. And fleshed out. Why should writers sit around for months searching for a good idea when AI can provide one in seconds?\u201d<\/p>\n
