No-AI Film Fest Goes Digital: Human Creativity Now Streaming
29 Apr
Summary
- Bateman's no-AI film festival is now accessible via streaming.
- The digital room offers 44 films, features, and talks until July 10.
- Profits from the festival are distributed as grants to filmmakers.

Justine Bateman's Credo 23 Film Festival, a celebration of human-created cinema, is now accessible through a digital streaming platform. The "no-AI" festival, which recently held its second edition in Hollywood, aims to counter the rise of artificial intelligence in filmmaking.
Films and talks from the festival are available online via RoomC23.com until July 10. For a $40 "key," viewers can enjoy unlimited access to a curated collection of 44 films, including features like "Crystal Gross" and "Feel," alongside discussions with industry professionals who support Bateman's mission.
The festival operates under the principle that generative AI, often built on uncredited work, merely recycles existing content. Credo 23, an organization that certifies films as AI-free, extends this philosophy. Bateman believes audiences will eventually seek authentic, high-quality human endeavors amidst a flood of automated content.
This initiative not only provides a platform for human artists but also financially supports them. The festival commits all its profits to filmmakers in the form of grants for their upcoming projects, fostering continued creativity.
