"At present, we do not intend to issue any statements regarding the use of AI in the film industry, We are monitoring developments with great interest."
"During production, we weren't entirely sure we would be able to complete the film. At one point we wondered whether we should use AI for the backgrounds,"
"It's reasonable to think that in one, two or three years... you won't be able to tell the difference anymore,"

Festival leadership declined to issue formal statements on AI while saying it is watching developments closely.

AI capabilities already include script generation, crowd replacement, and digital replicas. Performers and various crew roles face potential displacement, raising alarms about the future of many film industry professions.
