`` Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio '' is a stop-motion animation musical work that greatly reconstructs `` Pinocchio '', which is well-known for Disney's feature animation. In making the decision, Del Toro said, 'Nothing has impacted my life and work more than the Pinocchio animation, and no character in history has a deeper connection to me personally than Pinocchio. I am grateful to the talented team at Netflix for the opportunity to bring the Del Toroversion of the story to all audiences,' he said .

Upon the release of 'Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio', Mr. Del Toro is interviewed by DECIDER, which publishes news and works related to online content and pop culture.
Among them, animation works tend to be divided into 'animation divisions' at award ceremonies such as the Academy Awards, but excellent works will come soon to be nominated for 'work awards' Mr. Del Toro says. Del Toro said, ``Even in the French-Belgian animated film `` Red Turtle: An Island Story ,'' which Studio Ghibli was involved in producing, and ``Spirited Away,'' also by Studio Ghibli, great movies are ``films for children. I think that 'Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio' is also a work that children can enjoy, but it is not a work for children.'
At the end of the interview, the interviewer told Mr. Del Toro, 'This movie is a laborious work of art. On the other hand, AI art is currently attracting attention. It is also known for removing artists from the filmmaking process. But do you use AI art and what do you think about AI art?'
“I think art is an expression of the soul,” Del Toro said. I'm not interested in illustrations made by machines or technology.If there is a conversation about movies that tries to reproduce human emotions and expressions with technology, it hurts me deeply, and as Hayao Miyazaki says, , I think it's an 'insult to life',' he replied, quoting Mr. Miyazaki's past remarks.
'Insult to life' is a word that came out from Mr. Miyazaki in the documentary ' Owaranai Hito Hayao Miyazaki ' broadcasted on NHK Special in 2016. This documentary program follows Mr. Miyazaki after he held a press conference in 2013 and announced his retirement from feature animation production. It is recorded in detail that he struggles to fight.

During the production of 'Boro', Mr. Nobuo Kawakami, who was the representative of Dwango at the time, brought CG images to Studio Ghibli and presented them to Mr. Miyazaki and producer Toshio Suzuki. ``By letting AI learn ``disgusting movements that humans cannot imagine,'' Miyazaki explained, ``It can be used in zombie games and other motions.'' You're doing it without thinking about anything.It's extremely unpleasant , isn't it?
Quoting Miyazaki, Del Toro said, ``When I spoke with the great artist Dave McKean, he told me that his greatest hope was that AI could not draw. AI can complement information, but it can't draw.It can never capture human emotions, facial expressions, and softness.'
In addition, an exclusive interview with Mr. Hayao Miyazaki is being held in the `` Dwango Game Conference '' held in October 2018 about the true meaning of `` insult to life '' remarks. Mr. Miyazaki said, ``If artificial intelligence is touted in various ways, stupid things will happen.At that time, I thought that an anarchic person like Mr. Kawakami had no brakes. After all, unpleasant things are unpleasant for ordinary people living on the ground. On top of that, ``It would be strange if it wasn't for that funny face, but that damn serious old man's face was stuck over there. That's because I think it's Mr. Kawakami's big weakness, but I have a lot of flaws.I thought I could do something interesting, right? .
