From Script to Screen: Navigating Risk, Returns, and Opportunity | Global Conference 2026
Matthew Belloni, Drew Goddard, Cord Jefferson, Rory Kennedy, Adele Lim, Amy Redford
Industry leaders and creators convened to analyze the convergence of artificial intelligence, corporate risk aversion, and shifting audience values, identifying a systemic undervaluation of human creativity amidst an efficiency-driven market. The discussion highlighted how streamers' reliance on algorithms and "fear reflex" decision-making has decimated traditional apprenticeship pipelines while stifling diverse, politically challenging narratives in favor of safe, celebrity-centric projects. Despite these structural barriers, panelists argued that the inherent unpredictability of human emotion remains superior to AI simulation, predicting a future where audiences increasingly seek tangible community and authentic storytelling through independent funding models and live experiences.
