  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nIn what might be the quintessential existential question of our time, it might still be up for debate whether or not AI can actually be used for good. Well, not for everyone and every industry, but for film specifically, AI is not off to a great start.\n\nHowever, a new podcast titled “Films Not Made” has been launched by veteran producers, which aims to answer this question uniquely: by using the latest AI technologies to help bring lost cinema to life and resurrect some of Hollywood’s most legendary unmade films.\n\nLet’s take a look at this new podcast and explore how it aims to accomplish this existentially tricky task.\n\n* * *\n\n### Films Not Made Podcast\n\n\n\n\nLaunched earlier this week with its first episode, the Films Not Made podcast is hosted by award-winning veteran producers Avi Zev Weider and Amy Hobby.\n\nA weekly video podcast series, Films Not Made, is formatted to host writers, directors, and producers each week as the team revisits films not made for various reasons, like abandoned scripts, impossible casting lists, or brutal rejection letters.\n\nUnlike other film podcasts, which have explored films that could have been, the Films Not Made podcast goes a step further by using cutting-edge AI technology to generate trailers, scenes, stills, and critical feedback for projects that never saw the light of day.\n\n### How It Works\n\n\n\n\nThis unique element does make the show quite intriguing from two perspectives, rather than just one. On one hand, you do get a look into how and why projects don’t come to life. It’s a nice way to learn about the film industry and glean insights into how to possibly avoid the same pitfalls or bad luck that have happened to others in the past.\n\nThe other side is a focus on how AI could also potentially be used to bring said projects to life, if not to make them into films per se, but at least to see visions of what could have been.\n\n### Find Out More\n\n\n\n\nIf Films Not Made sounds interesting to you for either reason, you can _check out its official website here_ or find episodes on _Apple Podcasts_ or _Spotify_.",
