SHAHID KAPOOR-KRITI SANON ON AI INTEGRATION IN SOCIETY
The story of the film ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’ will be highly dependent upon AI, where Shahid will be seen romancing a robot named Sifra, which is an abbreviation for Super Intelligent Female Robot Automation. During an exclusive interaction with IndiaToday.in in Delhi while promoting the film, the lead pair shared their concerns about the viral deepfake videos and the repercussions they could lead to.
While talking about the same, Kriti said, ''It is concerning and there are several morphed ones that came out. But there are also AI-generated news anchors which means that we are moving forward really fast. So, an AI partner is possible in coming years.''
Sharing his opinion, Shahid said ''Human beings are themselves the problem. They have done this to the world. We are pushing the blame on AI. We are used to not living in reality. We keep projecting something else on social media that is not a reality and keep comparing reality with what we see on social media and then leads one into depression. That is the truth. Simulation ho chuka hain and we are looking for an alternate reality. That is what AI is and it is something as fundamental as a relationship. There is a difference between man-made and god created. This is there in this film, shown in a subtle way.''
