With Artificial Intelligence a hot topic in the film world, Disney has not only posted AI jobs for the media side of the company, but also Walt Disney Imagineering in the theme park development segment too.
According to job postings from Disney, Walt Disney Imagineering is seeking a couple of candidates for R&D – Generative Artificial Intelligence. The job postings say that AI will be leveraged for new AI tools that will enhance Imagineers’ ability to create, design and deliver a variety of projects around the world.
The job postings also say that candidates will interface with third-party studios, universities, organizations, and developers to evaluate, adopt, and integrate the latest generative AI.
