AI is driving a massive shift in film, yet the industry stays quiet. Beyond the hype, a true renaissance is forming. This session moves past the "replacement" debate to reveal how pros are already using AI to amplify human intent, not replace it.
We’ll pull back the curtain on the "don't ask, don't tell" reality of modern production — from "AI slop" to Super Bowl-grade craft. Join experts from Artlist, OpenAI, and Netflix Alum to see how creators are overcoming the "trust challenge" to scale their vision and lead the next era of cinema.
