Akeelah and the Bee

AKEELAH AND THE BEE is the inspirational story of Akeelah Anderson (Keke Palmer), an eleven-year-old girl from South Los Angeles with a gift for words.

Our Trailer Pack engineers experimented with artificial intelligence to write some of our movie descriptions. We think they’re better than what many of the studios have written! Whenever you see “[ai]” at the end of the text, we’ve used some of the most powerful natural language processing in the world. Check out the various descriptions and we’d love to hear what you think of them at ai@trailerpack.com
