Steven Spielberg may have made a film titled “A.I. Artificial Intelligence,” but he hasn’t adopted the technology in his filmmaking process, the legendary director told an audience at SXSW 2026.
Spielberg, whose filmography includes classics like “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” “Jaws” and “Jurassic Park,” said that he’s “never used AI on any of my films yet.”
While Spielberg is in favor of the technology “in many disciplines,” he said, "All the seats are occupied" in his writers' rooms. "There's no empty chair with a laptop on it," he added.
