"jeff goldblum's vocals in wicked have audible AI tuning artifacts!! that's reprehensible!!" um. first of all that's autotune. pretty standard. and second of all that's not....that's just word salad. yes there is a lot of technology in cinematic post production that operates via machine learning but like. thats just how the tech works. it's not evil because you slapped an "AI" label on it. hiring some poor sap to tune jeff goldblum's raw vocal tracks like he's hatsune miku would not only be incredibly cost-ineffective but it would also be way worse in terms of energy consumption by the machines doing the tuning. not to mention that it would drive the audio editor insane. i think you guys just want to participate in a moral panic if you want my honest opinion
#speak friend and enter#like. idk how to explain this in terms a baby would understand but autotune is ''AI'' in the same way that suggested text is ''AI''#which is to say that it isn't. and/or that ''AI'' as a descriptor means functionally nothing#machine learning + procedural gen + language learning models are integral to how computers work. especially in film editing#but now that ''AI'' is a meaningless buzzword and getting applied to programs all willy nilly nobody knows how to think critically ig
