"A battle that we will lose": Demi Moore weighs in on impact of artificial intelligence in films

Speaking at the Cannes Film Festival press conference on Tuesday, the actor emphasised that Hollywood will have to find ways to work with AI, as per Variety.

"I think the reality is that to resist -- I always feel that against-ness breeds against-ness. AI is here. And so to fight it is to fight something that is a battle that we will lose. So to find ways in which we can work with it, I think, is a more valuable path to take," Moore said, on being asked about how AI has been impacting the movie business and if there should be more regulations.

'The Substance' star further explained that there are many beautiful aspects to using AI; however, they maintained that it can never replace the human experience or touch.

"The truth is, there really isn't anything to fear because what it can never replace is what true art comes from, which is not the physical; it comes from the soul. It comes from the spirit of each and every one of us sitting here, to each and every one of us who creates every day. And that they can never recreate through something that is technical," Demi Moore added.

For her Cannes appearance, Demi Moore chose an off-shoulder polka dot dress.
