Orson Welles' Lost Film to Be Reconstructed Using AI Amid Controversy
The estate of Orson Welles criticizes AI startup Fable Studio's plans to use AI to recreate lost scenes of 'The Magnificent Ambersons,' calling it a publicity stunt and emphasizing that AI cannot replace human creativity. Fable's CEO announced their platform aims to generate footage to 'bring back' the film's missing parts, but the estate was not informed and remains skeptical about the effort, which they see as a mechanical exercise lacking Welles' creative genius.
