ABSTRACT

Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are beginning to revolutionize the Media and Entertainment production and distribution industry as with other industries, such as mobile, business, transportation, gaming, robotics, security and education. Much like non-intelligent automation, artificial-intelligence applications can be trained to perform human-like tasks. Some of the common skills currently imitated by AI include visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making and adaptability. AI tools can be applied to perform tasks that were previously difficult or near impossible to accomplish. AI performs tasks faster and with greater precision than their experienced human counterparts.

Production teams have started using AI for script selection and media management is applying AI to cataloging and indexing assets. Live sports production use AI in player tracking and other applications, as an interesting approach to capturing live sports events to provide a richer experience to the viewer.
