Cate Blanchett has told the BBC she is "deeply concerned" about the impact of artificial intelligence (AI).
Speaking on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, the Australian actress said: "I'm looking at these robots and driverless cars and I don't really know what that's bringing anybody."
Blanchett, 55, was promoting her new film Rumours - an apocalyptic comedy about a group of world leaders trapped in a forest.
"Our film looks like a sweet little documentary compared to what's going on in the world," she said.
Asked whether she was worried about the impact of AI on her job she said she was "less concerned" about that and more "about the impact it will have on the average person".
"I'm worried about us as a species, it's a much bigger problem."
She added the threat of AI was "very real" as "you can totally replace anyone".
"Forget whether they're an actor or not, if you've recorded yourself for three or four seconds your voice can be replicated."
There is a "People" playlist on the channel if you are interested.
