Artificial intelligence is being deployed across the audiovisual sector for both technical automation and content restoration. In South Korea, new services like Hudson AI’s ‘Localization AI Agent’ aim to automate dubbing and quality inspection by distinguishing between multiple speakers and capturing emotional cues. Additionally, tools like Wisesoft’s ‘Tumit’ are being used to analyze YouTube data to optimize content creation and identify viewer trends.

In Spain, the Universitat Politécnica de Valencia is using AI for the “Salvem les fotos” project, which employs automatic detection and retouching to restore hundreds of thousands of images damaged during the 2024 DANA floods. 

However, the use of AI in voice dubbing has encountered significant resistance. Viewers and voice actors have criticized AI-generated dubbing in Polish and anime series for being monotonous and lacking the emotional depth provided by human performers, leading to content removals and public backlash.
