<p>Affleck also said he does not believe AI will let someone “type [a prompt] in and make a movie that people want to see,” THR reports. Separately at Screentime, he pushed back on viral claims that Netflix forced him and Matt Damon to restated plot points in <em>The Rip</em>, calling that characterization contrary to their experience.</p>

<p>For readers tracking AI and studio craft on <a href="https://ishookdaily.com/daily-news">Daily News</a>, verified as of Oct. 1 reports: Affleck confirmed AI use on <em>Animals</em> without detailing each task; he said use was concentrated in post and that the movie remains human-scale; Netflix’s InterPositive acquisition underpins his AI work; the film streams and plays theatrically starting Oct. 9.</p>
