AI is no longer simply making production faster or cheaper — it is beginning to change what can be made, who gets to make it, and how stories are developed from idea to screen. In this keynote fireside chat, Daniel Gordon explores what an AI-native production model really looks like: where AI can unlock radically new creative possibilities, where human craft remains irreplaceable, and how producers can rethink the economics, workflows, and creative processes of filmmaking. As the technology races ahead, the bigger question is no longer “Can AI make a film?” but “What kind of films, worlds, and businesses become possible when we build for AI from the start?”

AI is not just changing how content is made — it is opening the door to entirely new characters, worlds and entertainment formats. Studio Meta-K CEO Kim Kwang-jib takes us inside the emerging AI-native content ecosystem, exploring how Korea is combining its global storytelling expertise with generative AI and virtual humans to create IP that can be produced, scaled and experienced in radically new ways. The bigger question: if the rules of creation have changed, what will the next global entertainment franchise look like?

AI has moved rapidly from experimentation to execution across the content business—but as 2026 draws to a close, the bigger question is no longer what can AI do? It is what is actually changing the economics, creative models and global circulation of content?

In conversation with Karen Fu, CEO & Deputy President of the Huace Group, this fireside chat looks beyond the technology itself to examine the next phase of the AI-content business: how AI is reshaping what gets made, how quickly it can travel, how IP can be adapted for different audiences, and where new formats such as microdramas fit into the global content economy.

From production efficiency and localisation to new forms of IP development and distribution, what lessons has 2026 taught the industry—and where will the smartest content companies place their bets in 2027?
