This was bound to happen sooner or later: Just as Christopher Nolan\u2019s epic is making its way to cinemas, a fully AI generated The Odyssey<\/a> movie has been made. Its title is rather aptly Odysseus: The Fall.<\/span><\/p>\n

The debate surrounding the use of artificial intelligence<\/a> rages on and divides Hollywood. Creators like Backrooms\u2019 Kane Parsons and Pluribus\u2019 Vince Gilligan have made it clear they\u2019re dead against it, while filmmakers George Lucas<\/a> and Martin Scorsese have surprisingly expressed support for its use.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ultimately, the conversation is nuanced and, for the most part, many agree that it\u2019s fine for certain tasks (de-aging being a recent example) – it\u2019s when AI bleeds into the art itself that we enter troubling territory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Nonetheless, there are still multiple projects being made using the technology, including those by futurist Ash Koosha. Following on from his AI-generated docudrama Dreams Of Violets, he\u2019s now collaborated with AI-led film studio Fountain 0 to develop a tech-driven interpretation of Homer\u2019s 3000-year-old epic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Odysseus: The Fall is a 135-minute film said to retell the Odyssey \u201cas the fractured memory of a drowning man in his final minutes, a voyage that is really a trial, where every monster wears his own handwriting.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
