AI-generated hit movie will be released in the next three years. AI-genera= ted video is already flooding social media, so it is not unreasonable to be= lieve that fully AI-generated movies will be possible in three years. The b= igger question is whether there will be an audience for that content. It is=
likely that AI-generated content will raise the demand for human-generated=
content. There may be a market for hybrid content, but a purely AI-generat=
ed movie topping the box office by 2029 is unlikely.
