Generative AI (GenAI) is rapidly transforming the media ecosystem and the world at large, reshaping our culture and our conversations. While there is great potential in this technology, there are also risks. The survival of the documentary industry, in all of its power and promise to help us understand and interpret our history and our present, is contingent on maintaining a truthful and transparent relationship with viewers. Committed to this ideal, the Archival Producers Alliance – in conversation with hundreds of professionals in the industry – developed a set of Best Practices for guiding the use of this emerging technology in documentary film.
