The last time we saw a copyright struggle like this was Napster. After a lot of ire we eventually landed on Spotify, shows, and merch. Musicians seem fine this time around, but graphic designers are in for a world of hurt. Artists and musicians mostly already starve, unless they're extremely lucky and famous.

Every class of artist will now be able do more than they could alone in the world before AI. They no longer need institutional capital to make big, ambitious works.

Graphics designers will have tools and will make movies and interactive fictions. They'll build their own following.

It'll look like YouTube and the rise of the YouTuber, except bigger and broader.

Yeah and we can give money to AI so it can read/watch/review all the extra content we don’t already have enough of.

There isn't enough content that tailors to my interests. In fact, there's barely any.

Nearly every film I watch, I question the director's choices. I'd do casting and set dec differently. I'd change the music and design.

The plot and writing and character development are the things that can irk me the most.

Very seldom do I finish an experience and feel sated. When it happens, I feel elated and the experience sits with me for days. But that's not frequent enough.

We all deserve more, not less.

I feel generally there is too much but I can respect your desire for more tailored content. It just seems discovery would be difficult in such a landscape.

... and streaming services being silos for content, so I'm not sure the 'last round' was even all that beneficial[0] in the long run. Anyway... RRRRR!

As to AI-generated content: Who knows?
