Cate Blanchett expressed concerns about the implications of AI, stating, "I’m worried about us as a species, it’s a much bigger problem." She emphasized that the threat of AI is very real, stating, "Forget whether they're an actor or not, if you've recorded yourself for three or four seconds your voice can be replicated." This reflects a profound anxiety about the potential consequences of AI on humanity as a whole.
Blanchett described AI advancements as "experimentation for its own sake," acknowledging the dual nature of technology: "When you look at it one way it's creativity, but it's also incredibly destructive, which of course is the other side of it." This highlights her recognition of the tension between innovation and its potential harm.
In discussing her film Rumours, Blanchett noted, "Our film looks like a sweet little documentary compared to what's going on in the world." This commentary illustrates the movie's satirical take on real-world issues, augmented by her reflections on broader societal dilemmas.
Director Guy Maddin stated that he intentionally withheld the ideologies of characters in Rumours, indicating, "there's an attempt when making sense of a movie for an audience to project on to it a message, a lesson, to find themselves in it." This suggests a deliberate artistic choice to encourage audience interpretation.
