John Gaeta, who won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects for 'The Matrix', has debuted a distribution platform for AI generated content - from short videos to movies - called Escape.ai.
The platform's goal is searching for edgy and different content which would emulate what is seen in the gaming world. It will provide AI content creators autonomy and growth by removing, what Gaeta calls, "the old system obstacles, increasing the visibility of new voices, harnessing emergent technologies, and enabling a community of creators, fans, and supporters to coalesce."
Escape.ai will allow creators to monetize their works through direct fan support, merchandise offerings, and specific subscription options.
This, newest class of creators, will be using AI to generate all types of content and it is but the first AI shot across the bow of the entertainment industry.
On March 1st, one day before the Oscars, the Escape Awards will be presented to AI centric films. AI generated films can be produced very quickly, with small teams and capital, and be of high quality. This fuels anxieties in Hollywood but Gaeta says, "Escape.ai is not competing with Hollywood, but building something new to use in filmmaking."
