As conversations around artificial intelligence continue to dominate creative industries, actor Bhumi Pednekkar offers a thoughtful perspective on how technology can coexist with creativity. Rather than resisting the inevitability of AI, Bhumi believes in engaging with it consciously as a tool to enhance one’s craft.
Speaking on mid-day’s Sit With Hitlist, Bhumi shared how she has been using AI while working on her on-screen characters. The actress revealed that the technology has learnt her patterns and ways of thinking. For Bhumi, the realisation was simple: “The machine knows all of us. This is inevitable. I’d rather use it for productive things in my life.”
