Dipankar Mukherjee, co-founder of Studio Blo, an AI-powered content studio, joins DNA India, discussing the pros and cons of the technology.

Will AI become a threat to actors and technicians in filmmaking? Dipankar says, "There is no way to deny the fact that AI is going to cause a redefinition, reorientation of how we see a lot of industry operate. It's very easy to see that in the VFX industry, there will be a massive disruption. Things like compositors, rotoscopers, etc, will have to reequip themselves with different skills. The VFX industry overall will have to adopt AI in its workflow, otherwise face redundancy. I think the cinematographers will have a huge thing to gain with the advent of AI in cinema and filmmaking. We ourselves have been able to achieve great cinematic quality in our work because we have included production designers, cinematographers, lighting experts, VFX experts. So it's not that someone is sitting and prompting things. There is a team of professionals, human experts, who excel in their departments. So I think we should be ready to reinvent ourselves."
