Oscars ban AI-generated actors and screenplays from winning awards

Oscars-ban-AI

If you were hoping to see a computer win an Oscar, you can forget about it. The group that runs the Academy Awards just changed the rules. Starting with the show in March 2027, performances and scripts created by artificial intelligence will not be allowed to win any awards.

The new rule says that filmmakers can still use AI as a tool. But the final acting performance has to be done by a real person, not a “synthetic” one. The same goes for screenplays. They must be written by humans. The Academy can ask for extra proof if they suspect a movie broke the rule.

This new policy comes at a strange time. An upcoming independent movie called “As Deep as the Grave” features a digital version of the late actor Val Kilmer. He passed away in April 2025. The actor had to leave the project because he was sick. But the filmmakers used AI to put him in a big part of the movie anyway.

The director, Coerte Voorhees, said the actor’s family gave him the green light. But the Kilmer movie is not the only thing worrying Hollywood.

AI from ByteDance recently shocked a lot of people online. A user typed two short sentences into a program called Seedance 2.0 and the tool then created a very real looking 15 second video of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt fighting on a rooftop.

The video spread fast and caused a lot of fear in the film industry. Right now, ByteDance has put the release of that tool on hold.
