Pégal made these remarks at an event in Cannes and while addressing film industry professionals, discussing the challenges posed by AI to the industry. She stated that the National Centre for Cinema and Animation "will soon revise its relevant funding rules" to ensure adherence to the principle of "supporting human creation." Pégal emphasized that the act of creation is an essential human characteristic. She said that AI is a tool that can speed up, simplify, and enrich the filmmaking process; however, a work is a perspective, an intention, and an emotion, which no algorithm can achieve. Pégal clearly stated that the National Centre for Cinema and Animation "will not fund works without an author in the future." She also stressed that this does not mean "the use of AI is prohibited in funded works," but rather that it will not fund works that "replace creators with AI."
