AI 'Crashes the Party' at This Year's Cannes Film Festival - Including Multi-Year Meta Partnership

AI "crashed the party" at this year's Cannes Film Festival, writes The Hollywood Reporter. The festival exposed "the fault lines reshaping cinema," their article argues, including how "AI is here — and the industry has stopped pretending otherwise."

A humanoid robot spotted marching up and down the Croisette seemed to sum up the worst AI fears of the film industry — the machines have arrived and they are taking your place. But inside the Palais and the market tents, the conversation over artificial intelligence had moved beyond fear into something more like uneasy acceptance. Fighting AI "is a battle we will lose," said Demi Moore, a Cannes jury member this year, at the festival's opening press conference, suggesting the film industry needs to "find ways in which we can work with it."

That's not the official Cannes line. The festival has banned films using generative artificial intelligence from its competition lineup. But at the Cannes film market, and in discussions at industry events over the past two weeks, the tone has shifted. AI-friendly tech giant Meta signed on as an official partner to the festival in a multiyear deal. Its AI tools were used to help produce an [out of competition] festival entry: Steven Soderbergh's documentary John Lennon: The Last Interview. [Meta's press release announcing the partnership touts "our creator partnerships," their Meta AI assistant, and "our latest AI and wearable technologies" including Ray-Ban Meta AI features for smartglasses like "AI-powered translations that break down language barriers in real-time".] At the Marché du Film [film market], there was an "AI for Talent Summit" that took the AI revolution as given, focusing instead on ethical AI use, data sovereignty and on the ways the technology can be used to enhance, rather than replace, creativity.

For the indie film industry, it felt like a turning point.

Cops in Colorado concerned about White Supremacist messaging from DHS

A newly uncovered police bulletin warns that white supremacists may interpret ICE social media content as a call to violence. Via The Intercept: ICE Recruitment Tweets Are So Racist That Cops Feared They Could Incite Neo-Nazi Violence

Reports from fusion centers are widely circulated among law enforcement agencies nationwide. The bulletin from the Colorado fusion center is notable in that it is the first indication that state officials in the U.S. counter-terrorism establishment are concerned about the messaging of DHS under Trump. "The fact that you have the fusion center putting out a warning for law enforcement offices based on DHS messaging is surprising, even if it seems appropriate," said Claire Trickler-McNulty, who spent eight years as an ICE official both under Obama and Biden and during Trump's first administration. She described the evidence presented in the bulletin as "rather damning."

NEW YORK (ANP) - De olieprijzen zijn met meer dan 5 procent gedaald door de hoop op een akkoord tussen de Verenigde Staten en Iran om uiteindelijk de oorlog te beëindigen. Ook gingen de Aziatische markten licht omhoog.

De prijs van Brent-olie daalde zondagavond met 5,1 procent tot 98,22 dollar (84,35 euro) per vat. West Texas Intermediate daalde met 5,2 procent tot 91,57 dollar (78,64 euro) per vat, waarna de prijs weer iets steeg.

Ondanks het optimisme op de markten schreef de Amerikaanse president Donald Trump zondag op Truth Social dat hij zijn vertegenwoordigers heeft geïnformeerd om zich niet te haasten met het sluiten van een akkoord.
