he Saudi Ministry of Culture’s Film Commission recently held a virtual meeting to explore the use of artificial intelligence technologies in developing the movie industry.
The session highlighted the latest AI developments in the sector, showcased examples of its usage in film production, and its role in processing big data.
Delegates also discussed AI-related concepts such as machine and deep learning, neural networks, reinforced, supervised, and unsupervised learning, computer vision, and robotics.
In addition, the impact of AI on flicks at various stages of their making was explored, including pre-production, production, and post-production, and in marketing, distribution, and motion capture.
