AI Transforms Wizard of Oz for Giant Sphere - The Sphere in Las Vegas will debut The Wizard of Oz on August 28, using AI to enhance the experience. A team of 2,000 is working to increase the film's resolution and extend scenes beyond their original frames, aiming for a more immersive experience.
Ben Mankiewicz described how AI enriches details and adds new dimensions, such as including more of Oz's landscapes. Despite these updates, Sphere Entertainment strives to maintain the film's authenticity, aiming to create an experience akin to being in the original studio.
