AI reshapes media from production to distribution

Media companies are expanding experiments using AI, with a focus on cutting production costs, developing new genres and improving user experience. Video tools now generate longer 4K content with audio and better character consistency.

In distribution, recommendation algorithms and AI dubbing are becoming core infrastructure. The shift is also raising concerns over copyright, creator protection and review standards.
