The reveal came as SAG-AFTRA actors confirmed they were going on strike.

At what point does the AI just write the script, build actors and environments for it, “shoot”/render the movie, advertise it, and send it out without any human interaction? Will the movies of the future just all be animated? Would definitely be far cheaper than buying equipment, paying staff, and renting locations.

The AI is gonna huff it’s own farts eventually and start degrading in quality as more and more AI content is generated. AI creates a novel imitation of what’s been done before. It doesn’t make anything truly novel itself.

Well, we have a source of input that AIs don’t for the moment, and that’s our actual experiences in the world. Once we turn that into art or text or whatever, the AIs can train on it, but we’re like the photosynthesizing plants at the bottom of the content food chain.
