      I wonder if they waited until after backrooms was released to make the announcement on purpose.

      Only play that would have worked would be to announce that their last 3 blockbusters were actually made with AI after the fact

      Wild thing for A24 to do. Criterion just did layoffs in the last year or two.

      Crazy what companies will do for money.

      Can’t really say I plan on buying anything from them or seeing any of their movies in theaters now. Guess I’m boycotting!

      > On the other hand, given the extremely poor reaction to said posters, I can only assume that the folks at the head of A24 live in some kind of fully insulated bubble that blocks out Wi-Fi signals, because you’d have to be terminally offline to not realize that your fanbase of film nerds, who love auteur-focused, artistically driven projects, wouldn’t be on board with something like this

      I sense a slight bias in this statement.

      Honestly, it’s no wonder why so many younger folks are voting for socialism and socialism policies.

      My close friend is a massive a24 film fan and has said she’s done supporting them in theaters. I know it’s an anecdote but indie film people are purists.

      Crazy thing is, even if the backlash gets them to u-turn the deal, trust might already be lost. Chances are, even if they do u-turn, they’ll just do whatever they were going to do privately.

      A24 been sus for years, but this is basically the straw that broke the camel’s back. Such crazy times man.

      Fuckin website is unreadable with all the damned ads. I true hate this timeliness.

      Keep it up people, loudly boycott anything that’s smells remotely AI.

    13. corruptbytes on

      is there talk about how they’re using AI?

      I can imagine a lot of tedious editing things that AI can do very well that aren’t generative 

      You can also get very nice models based on synthetic data, like using 3D models to generate a bunch of green screen “footage” and having it learn how to key it out very easily

      Didn’t expect A24 to be such a cheap date.. didn’t Backrooms make like $100M already?

    19. PrestigiousSeat76 on

      Man, that is truly sad. A24 puts out a high percentage of quality content. It was good for the short time it lasted, I guess.

    20. Faithlessfaltering on

      Damn. Well. Guess another brand to just stop making an effort to support.

      At this rate I’ll be living in the woods shortly.

      So you know how billionaires are portrayed as fucking weirdos and perverts in fictional work?

      Turns out it’s fucking true!!

      We’re fucking doomed.

      We can’t like/have anything. And those new tools are going to be more „subscriptions“ or something that Google will build into the Pixel OS that will require a „subscription“ to do crazy shit…..

      Or some crazy distorted fucking world where we can’t like anything! Fuck!

      Okay. I FEEL. better.

      Thanks.

      (I’m kinda high.)
