Algorithmic content generation for your specific taste profile will eliminate more than half of all creative jobs. The end game is full content automation tailored to you and only you.

I think this job cannot be taken because it requires a uniquely human artistic vision.

Artistic Vision requires originality and creativity, bending the rules rather than following them completely. Working with people as well.

Robots will never be able to make Films that truly relate with Human feelings & emotions.

I am a budding filmmaker and I feel really heart broken since it is inevitable that filmmakers, actors, writers, singers, musicians, will be replaced by AI in the future

requires careful interpersonal relationships, negotiation, interpretation of project needs, sourcing of appropriate suppliers, coordination of multiple resources and shifting timelines, budgets and deliverables.

Most entertainment is going to AI generative. Efficiency will mean one director or producer will be able to do more projects in a smaller amount of time, reducing the numbers needed. I would say not eliminated but reduced greatly

One problem is that you have combined “producers“ with “directors“. These are two completely different jobs, though they are sometimes done by the same person.
Directors main role is to watch video and talk to actors. For machine learning, you would need a huge database of director comments in order to generate the necessary remarks. I’m not sure how this would be done.
Producer‘s job is to organise shoots and arrange funding. This is much easier to automate.
I would produce a risk at 40%, director risk, 20%.

AI can understand the sentiment, and emotional interactions between partners on screen, as well as analyze lighting, composition, and scripts. I wouldn't feel safe.

If AI can eventually create a short film in UE5, why can't it make TV sitcoms? For sure, there's little creative cinematography due to time constraints, and limits, and it could even enhance the medium due to the aforementioned limits in the real world.

Robots can't be provided with perfect human emotions which is the most essential thing needed for a story writer or film director

My future job is pd.
I don't think artificial intelligence can replace my job. I think that he is a person who communicates with many people and creates programs that deliver emotions and fun to many people. I don't think robots can bring as much imagination as humans.

I currently work as a producer. It's absolutely a job that can be done by AI. It requires no real creativity at all. Producers like to think they're having a creative input, but they're really not. AI could easily create Gantt charts and schedules and let the creatives be creative.

It could be possible that AI replaces film producer/directors, however when that happen, all of workers that supposed to be coordinated by PD would already replaced by AI. If that happens, what is the point of PD anyways?

I don’t see why there would be a need to replace human film directors with robots

AI and Human Film director could get on with each other in a wide spectrum of directions both like operation and technology management and creative process upgrade
