Creative Industries Weekly AI News
July 7 - July 15, 2025This week brought important news about how artificial intelligence is changing creative work worldwide, with major updates in publishing, video creation, and professional training.
In Vietnam, publishing companies are reporting faster production of textbooks and educational materials using AI tools. These systems help with editing, translating content into multiple languages, and even creating new material. This lets Vietnamese publishers save money and sell books in more countries. The technology is making it easier to produce learning resources while keeping costs low.
A big event called the AI Creative Summit 2025 was announced for July 29-30 in New York and online. Sponsored by Dell and NVIDIA, this summit will teach creative professionals how to use AI tools for video editing, motion graphics, and design work. New workshops include real-life case studies and career sessions focused on using AI to build better job skills in creative fields.
YouTube made a major policy change affecting video creators worldwide. Starting July 15, the platform will stop paying creators for videos where AI creates most of the content, including: - Deepfake videos that make people appear to say things they didn't - AI-generated voiceovers or background music - Completely fake news reports or animations made with AI tools
This decision comes after concerns about misleading content and copyright issues. YouTube wants more human-created videos that viewers can trust.
Creative professionals now face new challenges and opportunities. The AI tools mentioned in workshops—like Runway for video editing and Jasper for writing—are becoming essential skills. At the same time, platforms like YouTube are pushing creators to blend AI tools with human creativity rather than relying completely on machines.
The publishing industry's success in Vietnam shows how AI can help create educational materials efficiently. Meanwhile, events like the AI Creative Summit aim to prepare workers for these industry changes through hands-on learning about legal issues and career development in the AI era.
These developments highlight how creative jobs worldwide are being reshaped. While AI offers exciting new tools, companies and platforms are creating rules to ensure quality and authenticity in creative work. The coming months will show how artists, writers, and video producers balance technology with human skill in their projects.
