The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced it will take a 'no stance' on generative AI's role in films for the upcoming 98th Oscars. This decision follows controversy surrounding films like 'The Brutalist' and 'Emilia Pérez,' which used AI to modify performances. The Academy emphasized that generative AI will neither benefit nor hinder films' nomination chances. They reaffirmed their commitment to human creativity at the core of filmmaking while navigating the evolving landscape of AI in entertainment. The Oscars will be held on March 15, 2026.
