Out with the old, in with the AI: generative technology is ready to steal the show and reshape the entertainment industry in ways we’ve never seen before. According to International Data Corp, the media sector is witnessing an unparalleled boom in AI investments, with a whopping five-year compound annual growth rate of over 30%. Stats like these, among many others, circulating online, bring up thought-provoking questions within the entertainment industry today. For example, could AI be the driving force behind a significant shift in how entertainment is produced and consumed in the future? Does the rise of AI in the entertainment world present a challenge to artists and other creative minds in the sector?

Interestingly enough, Google Bard (the search giant’s answer to Microsoft’s popular Bing Chat) was recently asked about its capabilities.  The AI chatbot disclosed that generative AI thrives in “tasks that require creativity.” This revelation, like others, may not be entirely comforting to artists and creative professionals in the entertainment industry; however, it could hint at how the future of entertainment will be shaped by the fusion of AI and human innovation as AI in the entertainment world continues to grow.

So, what’s in store for the entertainment industry as AI takes the spotlight? Ashley Russo, Founder & President of ASR Media Productions, recognizes the undeniable impact of AI on the entertainment and news sectors. Yet, she believes that human connection is vital for truly realizing customers’ visions.

Ashley Russo’s Thoughts: 

“Production in both the entertainment industry and the news industry are being greatly improved by the use of AI. However, when it comes to relating to customers and creating their vision and bringing it to life, I don’t think anything will ever replace people.”

OpenAI wants its data centers called compute campuses as voter opposition hits 73%

OpenAI wants its data centers called compute campuses as voter opposition hits 73%

An OpenAI spokesperson confirmed to Business Insider on November 1 that the company now prefers the term "compute campuses" for its data centers, and Axios reported the label is part of a policy and public relations push planned for after the midterm elections. A Quinnipiac poll of registered voters found 73% would oppose an AI data center in their community, and Pew and Heatmap surveys show similar opposition. By The Verge's account, the term first appeared on OpenAI's site in the November 2 announcement of its Grid Protectors Program, which starts with a planned Effingham County, Georgia campus where OpenAI will pay full infrastructure costs and accept up to 1,000 megawatts of curtailment. Critics quoted by The Verge said a new name does not fix the underlying concerns.

  • 01OpenAI confirmed the term "compute campuses" to Business Insider on November 1, and Axios reported it as part of a post-midterm policy and public relations push.
  • 02Quinnipiac found 73% of registered voters oppose an AI data center in their community, Pew found 54% call data centers mostly bad for the environment, and Heatmap found 75% oppose one nearby.
  • 03The Georgia template behind the rebrand: OpenAI pays full infrastructure costs for a 3,200-megawatt Effingham County campus and accepts up to 1,000 megawatts of curtailment under a 25-year Georgia Power agreement.

IndiaMART moves B2B buying from search to decision with agentic AI

IndiaMART moves B2B buying from search to decision with agentic AI

IndiaMART CIO Nikhil Prabhakar says B2B buying is moving from a search journey to a decision journey, with agents shifting more work onto the platform. A seller-side agent that answers enquiries comes next.

  • 01When software builds the shortlist, a supplier’s response rate and catalogue completeness can shape whether it gets shortlisted.
  • 02IndiaMART's planned seller agent learns from past Lead Manager conversations, and each seller sets how much it may send without review, a workable autonomy model for anyone automating sales follow-up.
  • 03Standardized, repeat purchases are expected to move to agents first while complex procurement keeps human judgment central, which tells suppliers which product lines to structure first.
