Martin Scorsese is now advising AI image and video company Black Forest Labs, and he is just one of a wave of major filmmakers embracing AI as a tool. This week on AI For Humans, Martin Scorsese has become an AI filmmaker. Well, sort of. The legendary director is now advising Black Forest Labs, joining a growing list of major filmmakers discussing AI as a tool, even as the backlash rages on and cartoonists face death threats. We get into where AI filmmaking goes from here, why Jorge Gutierrez dropped his AI-generated series after backlash, and the genuinely incredible AI creators pushing the form forward right now. Then: NVIDIA and Microsoft spent three years cooking up the RTX Spark to reinvent personal computing, and Gavin let Codex's goal tool run for 45 hours to make a bear get extra jumpy.
