Film Festival Showcases What Artificial Intelligence Can Do on the Big Screen
- Runway's AI Film Festival launched in New York in 2023, showcasing ten finalist AI-generated short films from thousands of submissions.
- The festival arises amid Hollywood's growing but often undisclosed use of AI, with studios facing legal uncertainties and worker concerns about unauthorized AI use.

- The festival and studios’ AI integration suggest a shift toward AI-enabled filmmaking despite ethical debates, legal challenges, and industry efforts to establish control and protections.
