How AI Helps Entertainment

5 Benefits of AI in the Entertainment World

In the modern world, it's hard to imagine a life without entertainment. Whether it's watching our favorite TV shows, going to the movies, or listening to music, entertainment is a big part of our lives. Thanks to AI, that entertainment is only getting better and better.

There are many uses of AI in the world of entertainment. NFL teams use AI to find the perfect NFL coach replacements, as well to gain an edge in the draft, while streaming and gaming websites use AI to recommend content that users are most likely to enjoy. Today we’ll be looking at 5 ways that AI has improved the entertainment world and made things better for the end-user.

1). Enhancing user experience

One of the primary ways AI has impacted entertainment is by enhancing the user experience. By understanding how users interact with content, AI can make recommendations for new content, provide personalized recommendations, and even predict what users will want to watch or listen to next. This helps them find new content they'll love and makes their experience more enjoyable and personal.

User experience is a super important thing that can make or break a website or application. In the gaming space, it can mean that players will easily be recommended games that are in line with what they usually play, as well as help bridge the gap that can appear when they've finished playing one game and are looking for another. Everything can be collated in an easy-to-access way.

2). Improving content discovery

In addition to enhancing the user experience, AI is also helping improve content creation and discovery. With so much content available online, it can be difficult for users to find what they're looking for. But with AI-powered streaming sites and recommendation algorithms, users are able to quickly and easily find the content they want. This not only saves them time but also helps them discover new content they may otherwise never have found.

AI is a massive time saver, is able to learn new things at an astonishing rate, and this will do nothing except make it better for users when playing online and watching video content. The AI will be able to assess what the user enjoys the most, according to things like watch time and engagement, and be able to tailor future recommendations accordingly. This all improves the user experience and makes content discovery stress-free.

3). Enhancing video and audio quality

AI is also used to improve video and audio quality. By analyzing data about how people view and listen to content, AI can optimize videos and audio for improved clarity and playback. This not only results in a better experience for users but also allows them to enjoy content on a wider range of devices.

AI can do what a human would take hours to accomplish. Creating digital content is no easy task, especially when it comes to the visual and audible aspects, and so being able to slash the wait time benefits everyone, including the creators and end-users. The AI is able to instantly scan massive files and identify imperfections that can then be easily addressed and rectified.

4). Facilitating new forms of entertainment

AI is also facilitating the development of new forms of entertainment. For example, by using machine learning algorithms, it can create realistic 3D simulations of people and objects that can be used in video games, movies, and other forms of media. Additionally, it creates new types of AI-generated interactive storytelling experiences that allow users to control the outcome of the story.

These new forms of entertainment would not be possible without this technology. Gaming and online entertainment can become much more engaging, making it more likely that players will stay on the platforms and not look to go elsewhere. As long as users are happy with what they're receiving and that it's better than what's being offered elsewhere, there's little reason for them to leave. If the product is good, they’ll stay.

5). Reducing piracy rates

Finally, one less commonly known benefit of AI in the entertainment industry is its ability to reduce piracy rates. Tracking how people consume content online, it detects when someone is illegally downloading or streaming copyrighted material. This helps copyright holders protect their intellectual property while also reducing the amount of piracy that takes place online.

Piracy and cheating online is a killer, especially when it comes to fraud and accessing paid-for content for free. While piracy and fraudulent activity are rife at the moment, platforms are already using AI to help identify illegal streams and shut them down much quicker than it would take for a person to manually check the offending sites for content that's illegal and infringing on copyright laws.
