Runway CEO Cristóbal Valenzuela argues that the film industry should leverage AI to shift from high-budget blockbusters toward producing a higher volume of content. He suggests that by spending $100 million on 50 films instead of one, studios can increase their chances of success and democratize storytelling. While Valenzuela believes AI tools improve efficiency across pre-production and visual effects, critics remain concerned that this quantity-focused approach prioritizes economic output over artistic quality.
