Director Bertrand Bonello discussed AI's impact on filmmaking at a recent event. His film 'The Beast' explores a future dominated by AI. Bonello expressed concerns about AI replacing roles in the film industry, particularly in TV writing. He emphasised the importance of personal creativity to differentiate from AI-generated content. Bonello also noted changes in cinema due to streaming and evolving audience habits, stressing the need for filmmakers to adapt while respecting traditional cinema.

The integration of AI in filmmaking may reduce costs and streamline production processes, but it could also lead to job losses in creative roles.

As AI technology evolves, it is likely that its role in filmmaking will expand, potentially increasing its creativity and impact on storytelling.
