The businesses that try to fire all their good writers and hire low wage replacements to man AI will find that they sink millions of dollars into cliche stories riddled with minor inconsistencies that get panned by serious viewers. That might work for the latest effects and personality driven drivel like the Fast movies or stuff for kids, but not for anything serious.

There still needs to be someone excellent with executive power and enough time available to do the job properly taking responsibility for the final script. AI is currently only up to working as a junior/assistant writer.

businesses are not in the business of making anything serious, businesses are in the business of making money.
And when their attempts at serious movies make no money, they'll either get writers with chops at the helm, or give up on serious movies and go all in on trash.
For now
