This is the right answer. Any industry is garbage if they can freely exploit the labor of their workers.

Absolutely. Look at the solidarity of WGA, SAG, and the Teamsters today. They’re standing up to the real ‘landed gentry’ – corporations trying to strip away job protections and replace workers with generative AI.

And I’m super curious the steps they’ll take to force people to consume this garbage. Because now the main competition to their new AI stuff, is all the old stuff with real people. I’d rather watch Cannonball Run 2 for eternity than an AI movie once.

Agreed but my expectations of the general public and what they will put up with is a lot lower tbh.

That said even the general public have boundaries. Hollywood keeps 💩ing out “yet another generic superhero movie” and in the last couple of years they’re mostly flopping. Maybe I should have a little more faith 😅
