The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced that it will not take an official stance on the use of AI in filmmaking, stating that AI tools neither help nor harm the chances of Oscar nominations. This decision follows discussions surrounding AI’s role in productions like Best Picture nominees The Brutalist and Emilia Pérez, which utilized AI to modify performances. While the Academy emphasizes human involvement in creativity, concerns from Hollywood labor unions persist regarding AI potentially replacing human jobs in the industry.
