Ben Affleck Shocks Hollywood By Defending AI On Rogan’s Podcast

HOLLYWOOD IS DYING, and megastar Ben Affleck just gave it a DEATH SENTENCE. In a SHOCKINGLY dismissive rant on The Joe Rogan Experience, Affleck BLINDLY defended the corporate AI takeover of film, branding existential fears as “bulls—” and proving just how DETACHED the elite have become from the working-class reality of MILLIONS.

While actors, writers, and crew face OBSOLESCENCE, Affleck—sitting atop his mountain of millions—callously described AI as a mere “tool” for cutting costs. He LAUGHED at the idea of AI-generated actors like Tilly Norwood replacing humans, yet his own vision is a NIGHTMARE for industry jobs: Why hire location scouts, set builders, or even background actors when a machine can fake it all for pennies?

“We don’t have to go to the North Pole,” Affleck bragged, celebrating the end of REAL filmmaking. His dystopian pitch? Shoot everything on a green screen and let algorithms create the world. This isn’t innovation; it’s the CULMINATION of Hollywood’s soulless, profit-driven race to the bottom.

Even more GALLING is Affleck’s claim that the law protects us. Tell that to the thousands whose faces and voices are already being TRAINED on without consent by the very AI he champions. His naive faith in “unions and guilds” to regulate this monster is a JOKE against the trillion-dollar tech giants orchestrating this revolution.

The TRUTH he refuses to see? This “tool” is a TROJAN HORSE. Every “efficiency” he praises is a human job erased, a creative decision outsourced to a machine, and another step toward a future where art is manufactured, not made. Affleck’s complacent comfort reveals a HARROWING truth: The Hollywood elite are willing to sell out the entire industry for a cheaper, faster, and utterly HOLLOW product. The soul of cinema is being deleted, line by algorithmic line, and its supposed guardians are applauding the destruction.
