China has seen the launch of thousands of series for digital platforms, of which 95% were created using artificial intelligence. This number represents a profound transformation in the country's audiovisual sector, with streaming platforms rapidly adopting this technology to produce content on a large scale.
The Chinese audiovisual industry was until now a sector that absorbed millions of workers, from actors and directors to technicians, screenwriters, and post-production teams. The economy associated with this creative ecosystem created significant employment in various regions of the country.
With the proliferation of AI-generated series, employment in the sector is now at risk. Professionals who depended on this market face uncertainty about the future of their careers, at a time when technology continues to advance rapidly.
This phenomenon illustrates the accelerated impact of artificial intelligence on creative industries, with China positioning itself at the forefront of this change, albeit at the cost of millions of traditional jobs.
