AI pushes creative boundaries, but human imagination remains irreplaceable
A staff member introduces the use of AIGC technology in ancient book restoration to a visitor during the 2024 World AI Conference in Shanghai on July 6. This experimental film, alongside AI-generated shorts from eight other acclaimed directors, debuted in December as part of the "Kling AI Director Co-Creation Project" at the China National Film Museum. "AI now permeates every aspect of filmmaking, from conceptual development to post-production," says Rao Shuguang, president of the China Film Critics Association. French filmmaker Luc Besson, speaking at the 2024 Hainan Island International Film Festival, described AI as a "valuable tool" but noted its limitations. "With the power of AI, a small team — or even an individual — can evolve into a highly efficient and creative production workflow, forming a robust industrial chain," Chen says.
