I haven't been alright in years, just send more booze and keep clear of my sword swings.

yes well the BBC director is a complete and utter nob-head. So, you know...

Fuck no

In other news, an lA generated episode of Mrs Brown’s Boys went unnoticed…

no thank you 👎

Kill it both with fire

My point is I've been waiting a few years for the situation where AI can recreate a missing story from a script and telesnaps, was I wrong to hope that might happen?

Why are you supporting AI Not cool

I’ll take it over AI

But the standard of a Hollywood studio is shite.

That doesn't speak too highly of the Hollywood studio standards...

I would like to see an Ai studio exec giving notes on the episode and seeing the Ai generated addressing of those notes.

Thank God for old movies so I don't need to watch this new "standard" crap.

… If that studio is The Asylum.

I suppose I'll amend this in that that based on other responses in the post, it seems it was sent from a "fan" and not made by BBC. I'm not going to click the link to find out, the above statement still applies. For the time being I'll file the director's statement as "in poor taste".

The BBC also allowed some absolutely dire seasons of Doctor Who to be created, rather than let it rest.

Who on earth is watching Doctor Who for the realistic special effects? Or even just “pretty good” ones?

We are fucked

Hard pass

"Pretty good" now being the standard we aspire to. And the word "pretty" is doing a lot of heavy lifting...

This statement alone should be enough to have them immediately removed from their position.

Without knowing a damn thing aout the guy, I somehow already knew this

Doctor Who always knew exactly who they are

Breaking new ground by picking one who hates the concept of art at least

noo, dont do that

If the director at the Holywood studio was Ed Wood.

Shove it up your arse.

Disgusting.

Exterminate

Man from Google says what?

What a great way to show faith in those you are leading.

I think that just illustrates how crap Hollywood films are tbh.

Gen AI in Dr. Who? I'm Gallifrey-ed not.

Well yeah, the BBC has been taken over by right wing lunatics.

Anything that doesn't lose money for them is "pretty good."

“Content”

The good thing is that individual content creators are able to produce quality content. This can end the woke storylines, the DEI messaging, and NGO pressured nonsense that ruined Dr Who for the last 30 years.

Yeah fuck that slop

No More AI!

To be fair, it was awesome.

Please don't make me have to boycott Doctor Who.

For any Americans watching "Pretty good" is British for "sucks donkey balls"

The Google plant, sorry - DG, not having a clue what the people love about The Doctor Now, if this twit were to cast themselves as the villain to be defeated by the Doctor… That’s something that we could all get behind

I know Brits are pretty fucked up and stupid but this seems like a lot even for those things

- Doctor! What shall we do now?! - hmm... This time we cannot run... Lemme think...

1. That's a low bar even if it was true, which it isn't. 2. This is grounds for immediate removal of Brittin. ... Oh ofc he worked for Google.

Well. So much for the series then.

I didn't know the new general director of the BBC was a cyberman, but yeah, it checks.

We are taking for granted that they are using AI to save money, but they are using it because they are out of natural intelligence.

matthew john brittin, from britain? pretty sure that is not a real person.

Director general isn't a middle manager, it's chauffeur driven Bentley stuff.

Yes, "pretty good" is exactly what I want out of a multi-million dollar franchise after boiling an entire lake to avoid having to pay a gaffer

lol no

Seems to me the Doctor would be against AI taking away creative jobs.

BBC Boss needs to be shit canned

I think I speak for all long-term Doctor Who fans when I say 'Fuck you, Director-General'.

Oh eat shit.

There IS no good NuWho episode, and thus AI can’t ruin it. (Unless this was the season Billie Piper was back, which would, but that still wouldn’t be AI’s fault.)

I think they're about to find out how much people really hate AI slop. Reith would be spinning in his grave.

Oh fuck OFF!!!

On that we're in full agreement.

🙄 why must we shove AI into everything

Alternative title: "The BBC's new director general is a fucking moron"

And those are the same that made possible the chapter of Van Gogh looking at his own art? The chapter of the child with the gas mask at the WWII? They really DON'T get it.

Who did Brittin use to work for? Remind me.

At what cost. Trillions of gigabites burning renewable energy and billions of liters of precious drinking water to cool. Stop this insane development

They've been working on this shit tech for six years, and the highest praise they can muster is "pretty good."

Oh fuck off

The BBC's new director general is a dumbass.

Did AI write that for him?

Umm… no.

More likely, the new director likes the cost.

Here’s #DoctorWho saying AI is shit in 1979

Wow. So much hatred for everything AI is just as bad as being an absolutist about anything else, yet here we are.

Cant you read? It says Fonll Paplaaan. 🙄.

RIP Doctor Who.

I'm up for another episode of the Doctor fighting AI not this bullshit

Before Matt Brittin became the BBC’s new director general, he was president of Google in Europe, the Middle East & Africa, and remains a major Google shareholder. His opinion on AI as a creative tool may be a tad tainted by that enormous conflict of interest.

You'd think the BBC boss would try to encourage people to pay the TV licence, but guess not.

This shit is so embarrassing

These unbelievable imbeciles

Absolutely fucking not.

The BBC's new director general can go gag on a BBC.

Has he never actually seen human beings acting a script written by more human beings? The episode looks pretty but everything else is terrible.

This is embarrassing.

That’s a solid burn on Hollywood studios.

That's where your TV license is going 😂

We dont need the Tardis' "in-flight" movie, thanks.

May a Dalek be inserted up his bum.

Eww, gross.

Yuck

I bet it was absolute slop

Hollywood studio standard?

Yet another reason why the BBC should be destroyed

The BBC's new director general needs to be fired immediately.

Is Tilly Norwood the new Doctor?

Christ alive, fuck that shit

Rot in fucking hell, Slop Peddling Soul-less Hack <3

And what higher creative aspiration should we strive for than "pretty good"?

Haha no it's not

Yeah, fuck this bellend with the wrong side of a rake. This is what he considers "pretty good". www.theunmadeseason.com#/series/doct...

words cannot encapsulate how disappointed i am. this isn't doctor who, this is doctor why

I can’t even picture the sort of complete tool who would say this and mean it. As always, people who talk about how great AI gen content is are really just showing off their complete lack of comprehension and taste. I bet it is as good as the best AI slop that I have already seen.
