Using artificial intelligence (AI) within the UK screen sector raises “significant legal, ethical and practical challenges”, a new report from one of 缅北强奸幼女’ flagship research projects has warned.

Other issues highlighted by the report include the safeguarding of human creative control, the fear of jobs being lost as positions are replaced through the use of AI, and investment in training in new skills. High energy consumption and carbon emissions, and the risks to creative content around biased data, are also described as being of concern.

To overcome these challenges the report proposes a nine-point plan which must be addressed within the next three years to enable the UK screen sector to thrive in using AI.

缅北强奸幼女 is lead partner of the CoSTAR Foresight Lab project which is investigating the future of screen and performance technologies. The scheme sees us working alongside the British Film Institute (BFI), authors of this report, Loughborough and Edinburgh universities as part of a broader 拢75 million project to ensure the UK remains a leader in the cutting-edge sector.

Professor Jonny Freeman, Director of CoSTAR Foresight Lab, said: 鈥淭his latest CoSTAR Foresight Lab report, prepared by the BFI, navigates the complex landscape of AI in the screen sector by carefully weighing both its transformative opportunities and the significant challenges it presents.

鈥淏y mapping these issues in depth and referencing the Foresight Lab鈥檚 taxonomy of AI in screen production workflows, the report provides a clear, evidence-led roadmap for the future adoption and responsible use of AI.

鈥淭his roadmap is designed to help industry leaders, policymakers, and creative practitioners make informed decisions, anticipate future needs, and harness AI鈥檚 potential while mitigating risks. In doing so, the report supports the sector to innovate responsibly, maintain global competitiveness, and ensure that the UK remains at the forefront of creative technology.鈥�

The report warns that the 鈥減rimary issue鈥� was the use of copyrighted material 鈥� such as hundreds of thousands of film and TV scripts 鈥� in the training of generative AI models, without payment or the permission of rights-holders.

鈥淭his practice threatens the fundamental economics of the screen sector if it devalues intellectual property creation and squeezes out original creators,鈥� the report says.

But it adds that the UK鈥檚 strong foundation in creative technology 鈥� as it is home to more than 13,000 creative technology companies 鈥� means that the UK screen sector is well positioned to adapt to the technological shift.

The report says generative AI promises to democratise and revolutionise the industry, with the BBC, for example, piloting AI initiatives.

Meanwhile, projects such as the Charismatic consortium, which is backed by Channel 4 and Aardman Animations, aim to make AI tools accessible to creators regardless of their budget or experience.

It says this could empower a new wave of British creators to produce high-quality content with modest resources, though concerns about copyright and ethical use remain significant barriers to full adoption

The report sets out nine key recommendations it suggests should be addressed within the next three years to enable the UK screen sector to thrive in using AI.

These include establishing the UK as a world-leading market of IP licensing for AI training, and embedding sustainability standards to reduce AI鈥檚 carbon footprint.

It also calls for structures and interventions to pool knowledge, develop workforce skills and target investments in the UK鈥檚 creative technology sector, while it urges support for independent creators through accessible tools, funding and ethical AI products.

The BFI鈥檚 director of research and innovation, Rishi Coupland, said: 鈥淎I has long been an established part of the screen sector鈥檚 creative toolkit, most recently seen in the post-production of the Oscar-winning The Brutalist, and its rapid advancement is attracting multi-million investments in technology innovator applications.

鈥淗owever, our report comes at a critical time and shows how generative AI presents an inflection point for the sector and, as a sector, we need to act quickly on a number of key strategic fronts.

鈥淲hilst it offers significant opportunities for the screen sector such as speeding up production workflows, democratising content creation and empowering new voices, it could also erode traditional business models, displace skilled workers, and undermine public trust in screen content.

鈥淭he report鈥檚 recommendations provide a roadmap to how we can ensure that the UK鈥檚 world-leading film, TV, video games and VFX industries continue to thrive by making best use of AI technologies to bring their creativity, innovations and storytelling to screens around the globe.鈥�

CoSTAR Foresight Lab is a 拢75.6 million national network of laboratories that are developing new technology to maintain the UK鈥檚 world-leading position in gaming, TV, film, performance, and digital entertainment.

Last month stars including Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney and Sir Ian McKellen, wrote a joint letter to Sir Keir Starmer, urging the Prime Minister to introduce safeguards against work being plundered for free.
