00:00The French film community is denouncing outright plundering by artificial intelligence.
00:05Over 4,000 actors and filmmakers have signed an open letter to the government
00:09demanding immediate regulation of the tools that can clone their voices and images without consent.
00:16During the 51st César Awards on Thursday, the most prestigious film awards in France, the topic was addressed.
00:25I signed this letter because I think it needs to be regulated.
00:28We can ask members of Parliament to take action, to regulate this, to protect human rights, artistic rights.
00:34Again, it's not just actors and actresses, even though we're worried about our work,
00:38but it's also everyone who works on a film set.
00:44The question of artificial intelligence is a question of rights.
00:48From the moment it draws on everyone's work and reproduces it, what happens to people's labour rights?
00:53That's the most important thing.
00:55In my opinion, if it's used in a good way, if it doesn't replace what we do, it's fine.
01:01But it's certain that if it replaces our jobs, we're in trouble.
01:06At the César Awards, the new Minister of Culture was called upon to enact legislation to protect artists.
01:12This month, the Chinese software C-Dance 2.0 was accused by Hollywood Studios of massive copyright infringement
01:20following the release of a viral AI video of a battle between Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise.
