'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice' star Justin Theroux tells Fox News Digital his thoughts on artificial intelligence and how it will impact future Hollywood films. A producer for the Oscar-winning film, "The Brutalist," is defending the production's use of artificial intelligence. D.J. Gugenheim, one of several producers involved in the film, spoke with Deadline at the Oscars on Sunday night, saying the technology is simply a tool. "If you're in post [-production] on a film, there's so many tools that you use, whether it's lighting, sound, and these are all versions of functions of numbers," he told the outlet. "What's important about how we're making a film is that we're trusting the actors and the creatives and the talent to make a film. So, if no one is losing a job, and you're making the best version of the product, that's when you're using a tool."
