    No, generative AI is. Why get props, lighting, actors, etc. when you can just not and say you did at a language model connected to a video generation model?

      Sad to think people might switch to watching meaningless uncanny valley slop. Then again reality TV won over shows with actual vision.

      Uhh, no.

      Movies have sucked long before AI came out.

      Kaufman even commented on it saying that AI can do a better job than writers because writers have been making the same formulaic shit for years.

        I think you responded to the wrong comment. I said nothing about the quality of the film industry’s output, only that it is going to be replaced.
