Section 1
The premise
AI can maintain a documentary's archival rights log so the post-production team always knows what is cleared, pending, or risky.
What AI does well here
- Track each clip's source, license type, term, and territory
- Cross-reference against the current cut's timecodes
- Flag clips approaching license expiry or used outside cleared term
What AI cannot do
- Negotiate licenses
- Decide fair use
- Substitute for the rights and clearances counsel
