Artificial intelligence has advanced rapidly in the creative economy. What was once

the focus of the conversation has shifted from fear to seizing opportunities. AI is no longer a threat, but a tool.

According to Buckner and leaders in the creative sector, artificial intelligence was at the
at the Cannes Lions festival. AI raises new questions regarding creativity,
productivity, and the protection of intellectual property. Intelligent application
is the key to success.

## The Accelerator vs. The Author

According to DonYé Taylor and Alicia Richardson, AI is merely a tool that enhances creativity,
but it does not replace human intuition. AI helps with the initial steps, but the
human touch is essential to the final product.

Examples from Gigi Robinson and Lindsey Gamble show that AI increases efficiency,
but does not replace creative expertise. AI helps save time, but
human decision-making remains crucial.

## The legal sector is trying to catch up.

Legal regulations have not yet kept pace with the development of AI. According to Buckner,
creators must set their own boundaries within the legal framework. The use of AI
can also pose legal challenges, so legal support for creators is essential.

## Does AI level the playing field, or does it widen the gap?

AI lowers barriers to entry but homogenizes content. According to Hodge,
women are less likely to use AI, fearing the stigma of “cheating,” but AI can increase
bargaining power through transparency.

## The consensus: People remain irreplaceable.

According to Robinson and Taylor, AI cannot replace human emotions and relationships.
Creators must continue to develop their creativity to preserve their uniqueness.

Digiösvény Strategic Perspective

For **Hungarian businesses**, technical debt is no longer a hidden cost, 
but rather an operational risk factor. Infrastructure that fails to meet the threshold of a response time under 2 seconds
is systematically given a lower priority by Generative Search (
GEO) algorithms.
