The rise of generative AI is transforming the film and television industry, promising to revolutionize everything from scriptwriting to animation. But before jumping on board the hype train, Media and Entertainment (M&E) companies need a clear vision of integrating generative AI into their workflows. Here are three critical criteria to help you decide if it's cut out for your production:

In the digital age, the proliferation of inappropriate or objectionable content in social media, film, and TV has become a significant concern. This content, which can range from explicit material to hate speech, poses a threat to individual users and businesses that operate within these platforms.

To operate successfully in a country, content providers and streaming platforms must comply with local regulations and perceive cultural sensitivities. This entails everything from editing prohibited content and assigning correct age ratings to accurately portraying religions and sub-cultures. With nearly 200 countries worldwide, it's almost impossible for any content creator to know what is or is not prohibited in certain countries. Cultural competence is crucial, and that's where Spherex is unmatched.
