I'm divided because on one side AI is taking away many jobs that now outputs low quality shit. On the other hand, AI may allow small creators to see their vision become real with tight budgets, specially in countries without a strong movie industry.
Netflix were outputting a lot of low quality shit before AI got involved.

Why only the effects? They could generate the series or movie on demand based on your algorithm recommendations! A great way to cut costs on this nasty expensive storage. (/s)

That's not really evidence... humans can write shitty scripts too.
If there were evidence amd they didn't disclose it, it would be a huge scandal considering protections against AI was a huge part of the 2023 strike.
There's shitty and "even an illiterate schizophrenic can write something better". But of course that's not evidence, lol, it's just my hopeful speculation!

And we all know that VFX people are already super appreciated and always well-compensated for their work.
We already murder some babies. Why not murder all babies?
How about "because if bad stuff is bad, more bad stuff is worse"?

Funny, but ultimately irrelevant to their point, right?

I’m sorry but you’re a clown if you think AI is going to be a tool used to help the little guy. Is like zuckerberg claiming Facebook will help connect and bring us together.

I don't like to admit it, but it has in my case. Pretty wild calling someone a clown for having a pretty good point/valid concern.

I've been crawling through Star Trek: The Next Generation on P+. Go old-school and you'll avoid all this!
Good advice, thanks

At least its b-rate shit created by real human beings.
Yes, and I didn't mean to make it seem like I was in support of implementing AI either. It's probably going to continue to get worse as a result.

The new star trek, strange new worlds is also good. Modernised but keeps the flavour of older ones.
I'll add that to the watchlist, thanks!

Glad they are finally cutting costs at least. Will be nice to see the subscription cost finally drop for a change instead of perpetually getting jacked up with no improvements in the service provided. So when does the lower cost subscription start?

I was being facetious.

Why even bother paying actors?

I mean, they've been using "AI" to write scripts for at least a couple of years (Hot Frosty and The Gray Man were obviously not thought nor written by a human, for example), so I guess this was inevitable.
How things are made matter just as much as the thing itself. People who can't understand this simple fact are half the reason our environment is being destroyed.
If the end result is all that matters, there are a ton of unimaginable horrors that could be done.

A boomer coworker recently said something that made a lot of sense to me: Netflix is for 2020s TV what Motown was for 1960s music. They've turned the artform into a production line, constantly optimising to shovel out as much content as possible, hunting the minimum viable product, and occasionally, very rarely, producing something good almost by chance.

They can streamline all they want and keep pumping out forgettable content. Nothing tops great makeup work and special effects. "American Werewolf in London" transformation scene will always haunt me and I will never forget the title of that movie.

I really want to get into it but its pacing is ever slightly too slow. Is it worth pushing through? I think I stopped right after the episode where the wife is introduced.
