In 2021, *Get Back* by Peter Jackson became a sensation after its premiere, but fans’ reactions to his use of artificial intelligence (AI) were split. While tech enthusiasts admired how AI cleaned up old audio recordings, the public generally remained skeptical. Now, in January mid-month, it was revealed that *Brutalist*, Brady Corbet’s Beatles documentary, also relied on AI during production. Social media responded with a mix: one user called it “Evil,” while others expressed frustration or mockery. Jackson and Corbet have since become unlikely allies, with Jackson emphasizing his use of AI as a creative tool in *Get Back*, while Corbet faced backlash for the same technology. This unexpected alliance highlights how AI’s role in filmmaking—and its reception—differs vastly between Jackson and Corbet, offering insight into the evolving use of technology in art.
