Two science-fiction series generated with AI, “Space Nation” and “Kira,” will have their pilot episodes premiere at the TV market Mipcom next week in Cannes. Both shows are produced by Ex Machina Studios and represented globally by K5 Intl. This marks a significant event as it is reportedly the first time fully produced AI-generated episodes will be screened for buyers at an international market.
The pilots will be shown on October 12 and 13 at Cinéma Les Arcades, near the Palais des Festivals.
