Photo: VCGWhen the 38th Hundred Flowers Awards, one of China's three major film awards, concluded in Beijing on Tuesday, AI emerged as one of the event's new participants, alongside the stars on the red carpet and filmmakers receiving honors.
For the first time in the 64-year history of the awards, this year's edition introduced an AI-generated content (AIGC) recommendation unit, giving AI-generated films a new pathway into a major film award platform.
The move reflects a broader shift in the relationship between technology and cinema. 
Rather than replacing filmmakers, AI is increasingly seen as a creative tool that lowers production barriers, expands visual possibilities and allows more people to turn ideas into films, Zhang Peng, an associate professor at Nanjing Normal University, told the Global Times.
The AIGC recommendation unit, launched on June 30, attracted 2,038 entries from around the world in just over a month. After evaluation, six productions received the "Hundred Flowers AIGC Recommendation Honor," covering categories including animation, visual effects, technology, creativity, directing and short films.
For many young filmmakers, AI has opened a new path into the industry. Multiple award-winning creators said at a seminar on the sidelines of the Hundred Flowers Awards that AI tools such as Jimeng and the Seedance model helped them with visual development, shot design, dubbing and maintaining emotional continuity.
Zhang Bohang, a representative of the team behind Yi Meng (A Dream), which won the award for Best Animated Work, said at the seminar that animation had long been a dream for the team, but high production costs had previously made it difficult to bring that dream to life. "The emergence of AI has given us a way to make our dreams come true," he said.
Lu Qiwei, a representative of the creative team behind Yecha Crossing the River, which won the Best Creative Work award, said at the seminar that Seedance allows creators to input characters, scenes, visual styles and directorial ideas, then select and organize the generated material themselves.
However, filmmakers at the event also emphasized that AI does not replace human creativity. Director Liu Shuheng, whose work Out of Control received recognition, said AI had lowered the threshold for creating visual images while raising the expectations for creators' decisions. 
"AI makes it easier to create a picture, but it also makes people think more about why they choose to shoot it this way," Liu said at the seminar.
The shift is not limited to AI-powered filmmaking. The awards are also expanding recognition for emerging forms of storytelling.
The 38th Hundred Flowers Awards also introduced a new short-drama recognition section, marking the first time the awards had recognized short dramas. It marked the first time the awards had included short dramas in their recognition system, organizers said.
AI also featured prominently in the event's audience experience. Global Times reporters observed interactive installations that allowed audiences and celebrities to generate personalized digital keepsake photos, while AI was also used during the red-carpet livestream to provide real-time commentary, answer viewer questions and enhance visual backgrounds.
The Hundred Flowers Awards' embrace of AIGC comes as major Chinese film festivals increasingly explore AI's role in cinema. 
Since its launch in 2024, the Beijing International Film Festival's AIGC Film Section has been the first dedicated section at a major film festival worldwide to focus on AI-powered image-making. Meanwhile, the Shanghai International Film Festival this year has launched a new "AI Studio" section, aiming to create the first experimental platform dedicated to exploring AI-assisted collaboration in film production.
From competition entries to audience experiences, these developments suggest that AI is no longer just a behind-the-scenes production tool, said Zhang.
"AI is gradually moving beyond being a filmmaking tool and becoming part of the broader film festival ecosystem," Zhang noted. 
"From AI-generated films to short dramas, the move also shows how China's mainstream film platforms are embracing emerging formats and recognizing new forms of storytelling."
。    CANBERRA, Australia -- Opposing campaigners made their final pitches on Friday over changing the Australia's constitution to acknowledge a place for Indigenous Australians on the eve of the nation's first referendum in a generation.The referendum has the potential to amend Australia’s founding legal document for the first time since 1977. But opinion polls suggest that the amendment will be rejected as more than four-in-five referendums have been in the past.Australians are being asked to alter the constitution to recognize the “First Peoples of Australia” by establishing an Indigenous Voice to Parliament.The committee comprised of and chosen by Indigenous Australians would advise the Parliament and government on issues that affect the nation’s most disadvantaged ethnic minority.Indigenous Australians account for only 3.8% of Australia’s population. But they die on average eight years younger than the wider population, have a suicide rate twice that of the national average and suffer from diseases in the remote Outback that have been eradicated from other wealthy countries.Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, a leading Voice advocate, cited the Israel-Hamas war to underscore why Australians should vote “yes” out of kindness toward the Indigenous population.“This week of all weeks where we see such trauma in the world, there is nothing — no cost — to Australians showing kindness, thinking with their heart as well as their head, when they enter the polling booth tomorrow and vote ‘yes,’” Albanese said.“Kindness costs nothing. Thinking of others costs nothing. This is a time where Australians have that opportunity to show the generosity of spirit that I see in the Australian character where at the worst of times we always see the best of the Australian character,” Albanese added.Opposition leader Peter Dutton, whose conservative party opposes the Voice, said polling showing declining support for the referendum over the past year was evidence Albanese failed to convince voters of the benefits of the Voice. “He’s instinctively won their hearts because Australians do want better outcomes for Indigenous Australians, but he hasn’t won their minds,” Dutton told Australian Broadcasting Corp.Indigenous activist Robbie Thorpe drew attention to Indigenous division over the Voice this week by applying for a High Court injunction to stop the referendum. “The referendum is an attack on Aboriginal Sovereignty,” Thorpe said in a statement on Friday.But the High Court said his writ had been rejected on Thursday on the grounds that it appeared to be an abuse of the court process, frivolous, vexatious or outside the court’s jurisdiction.Thorpe is among so-called progressive “no” campaigners who argue an Indigenous committee with no power of veto over legislation is not a sufficiently radical change.Many progressives argue the constitution should more importantly acknowledge that Indigenous Australians never ceded their land to British colonizers and a treaty was a higher priority than a Voice.Conservative “no” campaigners argue the Voice is too radical and the courts could interpret its powers in unpredictable ways.Some Indigenous people don’t have faith that the Voice’s membership would represent their diverse priorities.“Yes” campaigner Kyam Maher, an Indigenous man who is South Australia state’s attorney general, said the question he was most often asked by thousands of voters was what result Indigenous Australians wanted.“I can say absolutely and overwhelmingly Aboriginal people want their fellow Australians to vote ‘yes’ tomorrow,” Maher said.An opinion poll published this week supported Maher's view that a majority of Indigenous Australians wanted the Voice although that support had eroded since early 2023.Polling suggests the referendum will lose despite Australia’s peak legal, business, faith and sporting groups overwhelmingly supporting the Voice.Anne Twomey, a Sydney University constitutional law expert and a member of the Constitutional Expert Group that advised the government on drafting the referendum question, said she feared that Australian lawmakers might give up trying to change the constitution if the referendum fails.“I think it is a big concern if we end up with a constitution that’s frozen in time that we can’t change,” Twomey said.“In practice around the world, when a constitution becomes frozen and out of date with the world that it operates in, it becomes brittle and when there’s ever any stress on it, it does tend to break,” she added.___Follow AP's Asia-Pacific coverage at https://apnews.com/hub/asia-pacific。
