With AI seamlessly becoming a weekly conversation, today we dive into the future of entertainment with Rizal Kamal, CEO at LOL ASIA to discuss how technology is shaking up the stage, the screen, and the entire entertainment experience. We’ll discuss whether AI truly is a game-changer or a creativity killer for this industry and whether a bot ever can match human humor. We’ll also look at what this means for the future of entertainment, from AI powered music and comedians to virtual concerts and the rise of digital showbiz.
