As recommended by the Academy’s Science and Technology Council, this new rule states: "With regard to Generative Artificial Intelligence and other digital tools used in the making of the film, the tools neither help nor harm the chances of achieving a nomination. The Academy and each branch will judge the achievement, taking into account the degree to which a human was at the heart of the creative authorship when choosing which movie to award." The new guidelines come alongside three other notable rule changes and add...
