"Collective bargaining has been the fastest and most effective way for the regulation of AI technology," SAG-AFTRA Executive Director Duncan Crabtree-Ireland stated, emphasizing the union's role in shaping AI usage in Hollywood.
Summersett went on to say that she expects the movie to feature "a strong Zelda" and a "powerful lead character in Zelda." As for Link, Summersett said she has "no idea" what the filmmakers are going to do with him. "Is he going to speak? They certainly haven't alluded to the fact that he does, yet," she said.
Last month, Netflix made the surprising decision to kill off a key feature: With no prior warning, the company removed the ability to cast videos from its mobile apps to a wide range of smart TVs and streaming devices. Casting is now only supported on older Chromecast streaming adapters that didn't ship with a remote, Nest Hub smart displays, and select Vizio and Compal smart TVs.
Albert Cheng, who heads the AI Studios initiative, emphasized that the goal is to support creative teams, not to replace them. The focus is on improving efficiency and reducing costs while ensuring that intellectual property is protected and AI-generated content isn't absorbed into other AI models. One example used is Amazon's "House of David" series, which featured 350 AI-generated shots in season two.
