Netflix Uses GenAI in 300 Projects

ocean_protocol · reddit · 2026-07-17

Netflix revealed in its latest quarterly earnings that roughly 300 film and TV projects utilized generative AI this year. The tech spans concept art, pre-vis, filming, and post-production, with the majority of use cases occurring in post.

Examples include Glory, Brasil 70: A Saga do Tri, and The American Experiment, where AI was used for crowd generation, battle scenes, and world-building shots—content that would be prohibitively expensive or impossible to achieve traditionally.

Additionally, Netflix acquired Ben Affleck's AI studio, InterPositive, for up to $600 million in March. Affleck now serves as a senior advisor developing generative AI tools for filmmakers. The overall takeaway is that the film industry has transitioned from "R&D experimentation" to treating AI as a "standard tool."
