Abstract:

The film industry is undergoing a seismic shift with the rise of Generative AI, which is transforming everything from scriptwriting to post-production. This 80-minute session will explore the profound impact of AI on filmmaking, delving into its creative, technical, ethical, and legal implications.

The conversation will also address the recent Hollywood strikes in 2023, where concerns about AI replacing human labor played a significant role.

Our panel of experts will discuss how these developments are shaping the future of cinema and what it means for filmmakers, content creators, and the broader entertainment ecosystem.

Key Topics include:

  • The current state of Generative AI in filmmaking
  • AI’s role in scriptwriting, visual effects, and post-production
  • Ethical considerations and intellectual property rights
  • The balance between AI assistance and human creativity
  • Reflections on the 2023 Hollywood strikes: implications for labor and creativity in the age of AI
  • Future projections for AI in the entertainment industry
