So I would say absolutely.”The “Thank U, Next” hitmaker also addressed the use of AI in fan edits of Wicked and admitted that while it’s “fun” for them, the technology can be “troublesome.”“I think it’s very complicated because I find AI so conflicting and troublesome sometimes, but I think it’s just kind of such a massive adjustment period,” she said. “This is something that is such so much bigger than us and the fans are gonna have fun and make their edits.”After <a href="https://rollingout.com/2024/04/01/cynthia-erivo-advised-by-mother-drift/">Erivo</a> said one of the edits “degrades” her, Grande agreed that it can go “too far.”“I think so. And I have so much respect for my sister, Cynthia, and I love her so much,” she said. “It’s just a big adjustment period. It’s so much stimulation about something that’s so much bigger than us.”Erivo added, “This is the wildest, most offensive thing I have seen equal to that awful AI of us fighting, equal to people posing the question ‘is your p—- green?” reacting to one of the posters.</div></body>
