'The Brutalist' Director Brady Corbet Responds to AI Backlash

Brady Corbet has addressed the backlash regarding the use of AI in his film 'The Brutalist.'

Corbet emphasized that the actors' performances remained intact and that AI was only used for minor adjustments to ensure authenticity.

Despite the backlash, he argued that the use of AI should be part of an open discussion about its role in filmmaking. Corbet reiterated that the creative process was driven by human effort, and the AI's involvement was strictly for technical enhancement.
