No, 'The Brutalist's AI Controversy Shouldn't Impact Its Chances at the Oscars

Awards season, not unlike elections for public office, is a nasty game. The awards campaign, building up to the Academy Awards, has featured dissenting opinions from opposing candidates and smear campaigns. For the Best Picture frontrunner, The Brutalist, which has come under fire upon the revelation that Artificial Intelligence was used in the film's production, the press is certain to have their guns out. Everyone agrees that Brady Corbet's grand, 3-and-a-half-hour epic about an immigrant architect is a technical triumph, but some will find its craft irreversibly compromised by the unethical integration of AI. Not only is its Oscar consideration in jeopardy, but Corbet wrongfully needed to defend his work. In the end, the AI factor is marginal and distracts from the film's artistic merit.
