The 2026 lineup at Hong Kong's Filmart, Asia's leading content market and media industry convention indicates a growing embrace of artificial intelligence (AI) in the entertainment industry. The event's keynote and panel discussion lineup includes 28 talks devoted to AI in screenwriting, AI optimization of production workflows, AI for animation, AI product demos, and more. However, there is also a warning about the potential copyright infringement risks of AI-generated content. No major U.S. studio majors will be presenting at Filmart this year, but executives from tech players like Google, Alibaba, and Midjourney will also be present. Chinese short-video giant Kuaishou, which launched in June 2024, has been given prominence at the event.
