- Millstone Queue, CJ's AI video solution that protects privacy and accelerates content creator editing
Seoul, Korea, July 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -CJ Group launched Millstone Cue, an AI-powered video solution in August this year, providing a comprehensive service from video search and editing to content generation. The first release focuses on automatically detecting and blurring people and objects in the video, with additional features.
Millstone Cue integrates unique AI blur and AI remover technology that automatically detects and seamlessly removes or removes individuals, brand logos and filming equipment that appear in video footage. If you move beyond traditional manual editing, the system understands the complete context of the video and handles it automatically. Extensive testing has confirmed that editing time can be reduced by up to 91%.
CJ ENM first deployed AI blur in its internal video production workflow to verify its accuracy and performance. It was used in YouTube content featuring K-Pop Group Zerobaseone and MNET's World of Street Woman Fighter, and accelerated the distribution of sophisticated professional videos.
Following its official launch, Millstone Cue will be available to creators, broadcasters and businesses, making advanced video editing tools more accessible across the content industry.
Unlike existing services, Millstone Cue uses its own AI to identify and track people and objects without the need for reference images. It works reliably at a variety of angles, lighting conditions and distances. Patent applications have been filed in both the Korean and international markets.
While creators often struggle to properly remove sensitive or unnecessary content due to time and budget constraints, videos featuring numerous individuals are widely and indiscriminately shared. Exposing an individual's face without consent poses a serious risk of privacy violations, misuse, and even potential criminal misuse. Unwanted elements such as filming equipment can also undermine the overall quality of the video and the audience's experience.
Millstone Cue provides a solution. Protects individual rights, automates repetitive, labor-intensive editing tasks via AI, allowing creators to focus on creative expression. This tool enables the production of content that is efficient, ethically responsible, and delivers both the speed and integrity of creative processes, including CG/VFX workflows.
The CJ Group sees Millstone Cue as a pivotal step towards a paradigm shift in how content is created. The company plans to enhance its platform with AI innovation across video search, editing and generation, increasing content quality and audience engagement.
“Millstone Cues mark the beginning of our journey to transform culture through AI,” he said. Chihoon LeeHead of CJ's AI R&D division. “Our AI technology serves as a creative collaborator and enabler, helping to produce immersive, high-quality content. It is based on the strengths of global technology to shape the future of Korean-centric AI and lead the next wave of cultural innovation.”
