Many see this as a sign that the industry is seriously experimenting with new tech.
What experts are saying
VFX supervisor Debdoot Ghosh says the use of AI shows filmmakers adapting to modern tools—AI isn't here to replace people, but to help them work smarter.
Editor Prakhar Khare points out that while AI in film is still pretty new, it's catching on fast because it saves so much time.
Ghosh adds that although costs don't drop much, AI can turn weeks of work into just hours—making it a game-changer for movie production.
