«That's horrifying to me»: James Cameron spoke sharply about the use of AI to create characters in movies

Generative AI is not used to create characters in the Avatar films. In particular, such an approach is prohibited on the set of the new part of the franchise — Fire and Ashes. This was stated by director James Cameron in an interview with CBS.
Much of what the audience sees in Cameron's films was filmed on a special stage in Los Angeles.
«We had to build an ocean," director James Cameron said. "We could make a two-meter swell. We could make a wave crash up on a shoreline if we built the shoreline».
A similar approach was taken to filming underwater scenes — the actors had to work in a tank with a volume of about 1.1 million liters.
The director uses motion capture techniques to create fantastic characters. For this, the actor is filmed in close-up on several cameras at the same time.
At the same time, speaking about artificial intelligence when creating characters, Cameron adheres to a tough position.
«It's like, no. That's horrifying to me. That's the opposite. That's exactly what we're not doing».
Cameron's new film Avatar: Fire and Ashes will be released soon. Earlier, the director admitted that he would abandon the franchise and leave to write books if the picture does not raise enough money.
