In a recent exclusive interview with FPJ Entertainment, director Shakun Batra discussed the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on filmmaking. Batra emphasized that while AI can construct a “container” for stories, it lacks the capacity to convey genuine human emotion. He believes that storytelling must resonate on a personal level, something that cannot be replicated by technology. Batra highlighted the importance of understanding human experience in creating compelling content, as true artistry comes from emotional depth and authenticity. The director shared insights on the future of cinema, advocating for a balance between technological advancements and the irreplaceable human touch. As AI continues to evolve, Batra stresses the need for filmmakers to preserve the emotional richness that defines powerful storytelling. This perspective not only speaks to the challenges posed by AI in entertainment but also reinforces the enduring significance of human creativity in the industry.
