Regurgitated content
Looking ahead, the entertainment landscape in the Philippines is poised to be dominated by AI-generated content, spearheaded by major players like Disney, who will remake their old works with AI assistance.
This trend towards regurgitated content, both visually and narratively, reflects a broader societal shift in the perception of art, raising concerns about the direction of the entertainment industry.

In conclusion, addressing this trend will require a concerted effort to preserve creativity, diversity, and originality in Filipino entertainment, alongside measures to support and promote local talent and content creation.
