Live-Action Princess Mononoke Highlights the Impact of AI on the Entertainment Industry: ‘To Show You a Glimpse of the Future of Filmmaking’

โ€œThe future is clear. Itโ€™s going to fall apart.โ€

With each passing day, AI is becoming more a part of our lives; although it is helpful in many circumstances, it is a catalyst for many conflicts. Furthermore, with all the protests, strikes, and mass layoffs happening in movie studios and video games, it only becomes more evident that entertainment companies only care about assets. This has caught the attention of many, as it seems that big entertainment companies are looking to replace workers to help save money, and they have found an opportunity with AI. So what does it mean for the workers that someone has recreated Studio Ghibli‘s Princess Mononoke as a โ€œlive-actionโ€ video using only AI and that they achieved this ambitious project on a ridiculously low budget?

Iโ€™ve wanted to make a live action version of Studio Ghibliโ€™s Princess Mononoke for 20+ years now.

I spent $745 in Kling credits to show you a glimpse of the future of filmmaking ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ

The user PJ Ace in X(previously Twitter), CEO of Battle Island Entertainment, shared his recreation of Princess Mononoke in “Live-Action.” Although the scenes may look beautiful, they are not live-action in the first place. In fact, PJ Ace shared in a thread the whole process of converting scenes from the original Princess Mononoke movie into his adaptation using only AI. What’s more disturbing is that he did it with a death sentence, sharing this in the caption:

It seems to me irresponsible and outrageous to announce something as the future of the industry when we are talking about a declining industry with so many people working in terrible conditions.

Many users are not in favor of this type of project, like:

This isn’t filmmaking. It’s AI

But it is even more disturbing when the same PJ Ace responds to this comment with this:

sure–but fast forward 5 years when 80% of films in the world are ai-poweredโ€ฆ. won’t our definition of film change? even the word “film” isn’t accurate in a digital era

Even though it is true that not only the video games or filmmaking industry must adapt to changes, all industries do as well. However, at the moment, many regulations are still missing, such as copyright or better working conditions. For now, AI in the entertainment industry is causing more harm than being a tool to rely on. At least in the meantime, those who are against AI have one thing for sure: Hayao Miyazaki would not allow the technology to butcher any of his movies.
