The legendary creator of the Star Wars saga, George Lucas, has once again spoken out about new technologies. He compared the rapid development of artificial intelligence with the advent of the first car. The director is sure that it is simply pointless to resist this global process. In his opinion, we need to accept this reality as an inevitable future. Lucas noted that modern tools greatly simplify the process of making films. He made a vivid analogy with horses and old carts in the last century. Back then, people were also afraid of new cars because of their frequent breakdowns. They were afraid of having to buy gasoline and solve complex technical problems. Many predicted that these devices would soon start killing people on the roads. However, history has shown that progress cannot be stopped by any prohibitions. Now we are witnessing a similar situation with the introduction of smart algorithms into creativity.

George Lucas is fully aware of all the ethical and environmental risks of the new technology. Despite this, he firmly believes in the system's ability to self-correct. The director claims that artificial intelligence is smart enough for independent analysis. He will be able to identify fake content and identify its sources of origin. Ordinary people don't have such great opportunities to quickly find the truth. The basic idea is that each person is personally responsible for their actions. If someone uses technology illegally, they must be severely punished. It is important that the identity of the violator is identified and made public. This approach is very similar to the usual laws in force in real life. Technology remains only a tool, and the consequences depend on the user's will.

However, the opinion of the master is not shared by all representatives of the modern industry. Many leading analysts believe that the worst-case scenarios are not at all inevitable. In the gaming industry, a number of prominent developers have completely abandoned the use of AI. Renowned director Christopher Nolan also openly rejects such technologies in films. He recently praised the younger generation for quickly rejecting this leap. Young people do not consider artificial intelligence to be a fundamental breakthrough in art. Lucas has been setting the standards for quality and technological innovation in cinema for a long time. But now the future of the industry depends on the decisions of a new generation of creators. It is up to them to decide where the boundary of acceptable use of algorithms lies. Some economists are already comparing the boom of artificial intelligence to the industrial revolution.
