Google believes there is a place for artificial intelligence in filmmaking, and it is willing to put its money where its mouth is.

Google's DeepMind AI unit will partner with an emerging movie studio that will be risking its reputation by inviting such a tech monster into its halls.

'We think there are better uses.'

A24, the studio behind "Backrooms" — a 2026 horror film that fueled grassroots excitement — has accepted a gigantic $75 million injection from Google's AI sector.

According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, the partnership is not to make AI films or generate likeness of actors (as of right now); rather it will make use of AI in a way that is less intrusive on the viewer.

"We think there are better uses that preserve creative control and support risk-taking," said Scott Belsky, a partner in A24.

Belsky revealed that the studio will lean into AI tools instead, because filmmakers have not been fond of the attempts by developers to push AI use to make movies faster and cheaper.

The new tools "won't look anything like the prompted generation type of AI that people feel uncomfortable with," Belsky added.

However, a certain element of artists will likely be on the chopping block as A24 Labs is developing an application for AI-generated storyboards.

A24 Labs, a team of about 20, is tasked with replacing the roughly-drawn movie scenes that directors use to map out sets and different shoots.

Moreover, Reuters reported that the studio and Google will collaborate on research and development projects that will make new workflows. However, filmmakers are to retain full creative control, and the deal does not include intellectual property or data training.

The terms make sense given the growing disdain for AI animation and film that has been seen when big companies put out projects using the technology.

Coca-Cola and McDonald's both saw huge blowback from AI-generated Christmas commercials in 2025, and unique artistic perspectives are what have made A24 an emerging favorite for so many.

"Backrooms" opened to an astounding $81 million opening in late May, which led to a total of $175 million domestically at the time of this writing.

This came off of just a $10 million budget. Movie lovers created a lot of buzz before the film's release for its unique take stemming from a simple concept first developed on the anonymous message board 4chan.

Non-recycled, anti-industry films are what people like most about A24, and integrating big AI into its studio is an obvious big risk.

Right now, our youth are virtually ignorant of the American story. According to the most recent data from the Nation's Report Card (NAEP), students know almost nothing about the nation’s founding.

On the last National History exam in 2022, only 13% of eighth graders scored proficient. Roughly 40% scored below the NAEP basic level in U.S. history — the lowest performance category.

Glenn Beck is deeply concerned about these numbers.

“We are raising a generation that cannot explain the country they're standing in,” he laments.

But that’s not even close to the biggest threat facing our young people.

“It's not just the [American] story that is thinning out,” sighs Glenn. “It is everything that used to hold a person in place.”

Stories, family, friendship, and church, he argues, are all vital to the human spirit. But these cornerstones have been slowly crumbling with each generation. Today, much of the country struggles with “loneliness” — a condition that has become so rampant, former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek H. Murthy declared it an “epidemic” in 2023.

“Try to hold all of that in your head at once and then say, ‘What do you think's happening to our kids?’” says Glenn. “No shared story, emptied out churches, emptied out clubs, a friendship drought, a loneliness the doctors are calling a health emergency. Now picture being born into that.”

“You don't even know where you are. You have no map. You have no name for who your people are. There's no seat saved at any table for you. You just have a screen in your hand and a thousand strangers glad to tell you who you ought to be. That's the ground our kids are standing on,” he continues.

Kids, he argues, come into the world not knowing who they are. Slowly, over time, they develop an identity “piece by piece” based on “whatever is reflected back at them.”

But what’s reflected back at them today is largely determined by screens controlled by algorithms designed to mold and condition.

“Some of the voices reaching your kids, they are not random, OK? You've got people who know exactly what they're doing. They have a vision for who your kid should become,” Glenn warns.

These visions are often incredibly alluring to the floundering youngster.

Glenn imagines a young child still in his most formative years “swimming ... in an ocean of a thousand voices,” desperately trying to nail down his identity.

“And then one of those voices steps forward and offers the whole package: Finished identity. Here's who you are; here's your people; here's your club; here's what you stand for,” he visualizes.

This promise of “finally becoming someone” is “the hook” that so many children fall prey to today.

“When a kid feels invisible, a ready-made identity stops becoming attractive and becomes irresistible because they're looking for a shore,” says Glenn.

It’s the job of parents to provide them with a different shore.

Glenn has two pieces of advice.

“Give them a place where they belong ... where they can sit and disagree, and it's allowed,” he says, highlighting how so many of the poisonous movements kids get swept up in today demand absolute conformity as a prerequisite for admission.

“If the only place you're offering your kid belonging is a place that demands their silence, they will pay that price,” Glenn cautions, “and when they're hurting, when they've gone quiet and pulled away ... that's the moment to move towards them because somebody's going to fill that void in your kid.”

His second encouragement is to “tell them about the trap.”

“[Tell them] if anyone ever tells you that you have to stop doubting in order to belong, run — run from them. If they promise that they will transform you, and all that you have to do for payment is be compliant, that's the tell,” Glenn urges.

The key, he says, isn’t creating the perfect bubble to shield them from the world’s dangers. The key is “[making] sure that when they walk out your door, their eyes are wide open, and they have a home worth coming back to.”
