The Brutalist is one of the Oscars frontrunners with nine BAFTA 2025 nominations.

The film's editor Dávid Jancsó revealed that generative AI was used to improve Hungarian pronunciations.

AI tool, Respeecher, was reportedly used to enhance the actors’ speech and “enhance specific letters of their vocal sounds”.

The Oscar nominations for The Brutalist are due out on January 23 .

Director Jancsó says there is nothing in the film using AI that hasn't been done before.

He says the use of AI is controversial in the industry, but it shouldn't be.

Oscar nominations will be released on March 3 .
