The world of film is changing fast.
A new kind of artificial intelligence can create full movies from a simple description in just minutes, and it costs only pennies to run. This means that making a movie no longer needs huge budgets, large crews or big studios.

Early Demos

  • A scene that once would have cost millions to film can now be produced by a computer from a short text prompt.
  • The result looks real, follows physics and can even include famous actors as digital avatars.

This shakes up the old business model where studios control every step from financing to distribution.

New Opportunities for Talent

  • Actors can license their own digital likenesses and receive royalties every time a fan watches a movie that uses them.
  • Fans become active creators, choosing the story, genre and cast they want.

Threat to Streaming Giants

  • The rise of AI puts big streaming services at risk.
  • Companies that once disrupted video rental are now being challenged by a technology that disrupts the creation of content itself.
  • Without new ways to stay relevant, these platforms may struggle to survive.

Decentralized Future

  • Anyone with a computer can generate films that match their values and tastes, without interference from corporate interests or censorship bodies.
  • The old Hollywood hierarchy will likely shrink as millions of people take control of their own entertainment.
