Hollywood’s AI enthusiasts gathered at the Runway AI Summit to explore the technology’s potential, even as some, like Star Wars producer Kathleen Kennedy, expressed reservations.
The summit took place a week after Sora’s death, with attendees drawing parallels between AI and groundbreaking innovations like fire and the printing press.
Kennedy was among the few at the event who voiced skepticism about the rapid embrace of AI in the entertainment industry.
The discussions centered on the transformative possibilities of AI, but also acknowledged the need for careful consideration of its implications.
