The film industry is undergoing a transformation, driven by the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) that is redefining production, distribution, and consumption paradigms. Recent advancements, particularly in the audiovisual translation of Chinese productions, illustrate how AI can overcome language barriers, thereby expanding the international audience. However, this transformation is accompanied by intense debates on preserving human creativity and the ethical implications of these technologies. Industry leaders, gathered at the Cairo International Film Festival, emphasized that while AI can transform cinema, it will never replace human creativity.
