It can't be worse than a lot of the cheap Hollywood movies that are obsessed with CGI. So I'm actually happy to see Hollywood shaken up. They've had a monopoly on moviemaking for way too long.

Hollywood has long been a slop machine. I won't be too sad if it goes away.

Hollywood is already dead.

Even before getting into the slop part...
Most movies aren't even made from a creative vision standpoint anymore.
Big corps churns the most generic, reheated, boring things that are expected to be safe bets from an investor's perspective.
Then they put that thing no one cares about through a focus group process, which will effectively eliminate anything out of the ordinary baseline, to create the most average-feeling thing possible.

Slop is also already here anyway, whether it's AI or not.
I swear, I'd rather listen to some random kid imagining a story on the spot than whatever garbage workflow ended up making Disney's "Wish" slop movie.

It'll certainly be able to pump out formulaic marvel blockbuster schlock at unprecedented levels, but actual filmmaking is probably fine, if they ever go back to that.

Hollywood’s been dead for thirty years. Can one fucker with AI do worse than Steven Mnuchin? Who gives a shit.
