Remastering cinema
Rajinikanth’s Kochadaiiyaan, a continuation of the Tanu Weds Manu franchise and new mythological cinematic universe, are about to get AI remasters, as part of Eros Innovation’s $355-million commitment to the UK. The company announced the licensing of its $1.7-billion cultural dataset to a newly established UK operation. Eros’s large cultural model family, AI systems the company describes as trained specifically on Indian cinema rather than general-purpose data, draws on approximately 1.5 trillion rights-cleared tokens from 11,000 films and 100,000 characters.
