OPINION ⟩ The Art of Deception: Mart Sander Processed the AI Horror of the March Bombing

The article discusses Mart Sander's innovative use of AI in reanimating the events of the 1944 bombing of Tallinn through experimental media.

In Estonia, the use of artificial intelligence in filmmaking is rare, but Mart Sander has embraced it fully, feeding an AI with photographic materials from the March bombing of 1944. This approach has resulted in a vivid and animated experimental spectacle entitled 'Tallinn in Flames,' aiming to recreate the devastating historical event in a new light. However, this innovative method raises questions about the ethical implications of using AI to depict real tragedies. Sander's work challenges traditional storytelling by blending historical footage with modern technology, prompting discussions on the authenticity and sensitivity of representing past horrors through digital means. The historical context of the 1944 bombing, which left lasting scars on Tallinn, is crucial as it not only serves as the backdrop for Sander's artistic expression but also influences public perception and commemorative practices related to this event.
