According to China Business Journal, director Guo Fan announced during the 25th Shanghai International Film Festival that 'The Wandering Earth 2' had already utilized AI technologies such as 'digital humans.'

As for 'The Wandering Earth 3,' Guo Fan stated that he would not immediately begin filming and production. Instead, he plans to conduct a round of research on advanced technologies, with AI as a representative. He wants to understand whether AI is merely a technical tool or a new species. He also ponders how to present it on the big screen.
