Marion Cotillard discusses fears of AI actors at San Sebastián Film Festival
At the San Sebastián International Film Festival, French actress Marion Cotillard shared her concerns regarding the rise of artificial intelligence in cinema. During a press conference for the film ‘Ce matin-là / Milo’, directed by Nicole Garcia, Cotillard expressed apprehension about the potential for AI-generated actors to eventually evoke genuine emotion in audiences.
While she noted that current AI performances are easily detectable and lack depth—describing them as acting like ‘potatoes’—she questioned if the technology might eventually evolve to a point where it can truly impact viewers. Cotillard emphasized that she believes human experience, a ‘beating heart’, and a life lived cannot be replaced by artificial means in the arts.
