Nicolas Cage used his special moment to warn against the use of artificial intelligence in Hollywood. On Sunday, February 2nd, the 61-year-old actor received the Best Actor in a Film award for his Dream Scenario role at the 52nd Saturn Awards. He referred to Dream Comedy as a movie that held a special place in his heart. Nicolas Cage then emphasized the dangers of replacing human experience with artificial intelligence. He presumed that if Hollywood allowed AI to dictate performances, the result would be artificial, emotionless, and easy to forget. They would be missing an important part of creativity, which is the unique human factor.

Then, he addressed the growing issue of making AI do what humans should do in the entertainment industry. “Robots cannot reflect the human condition for us,” he declared boldly. For Nicolas Cage, the growing use of AI in movies is more than just a technological advancement; it is a fundamental threat to storytelling itself. The “integrity, purity, and truth of art” will lose its value, and all that will be left is the financial gain for its users. He emphasized that acting is an inherently human craft.

But before leaving the stage, he took a moment to acknowledge one of his greatest influences, David Lynch, recalling a lesson he learned while working on Wild at Heart.
