The good news is this means many of the jobs AI is “taking” will probably come back when people realize it isn’t actually as good as the hype implied

Yeah, this is a lame take.

If anything, especially in the modern movie industry, I see bigotry of high expectations.

Movies with good representation seem to be held to a higher standard, expected to compete with the best of the best in whatever genre the movie lives in.

These are early attempts by underrepresented groups to tell their stories. They should not be exempt from criticism, but I think it’s very reasonable to cut them a bit of a break and be glad they exist at all. Quality always improves with time, practice, and more opportunity.

Funny to see that Nolan in real life, much like in the dialogue of his movies, says a lot of smart-sounding words while actually saying very little of substance.

It’s unfortunate because the conversation about AI in movies is one of the few areas where there’s actually some interesting things to say right now. Even though the progression of AI in the current moment may be overhyped, the precedents we set today may last for a long time.

It is important to talk about just how damaging to the movie industry it could be to allow AI to replace actors, writers, and other creatives.

Nolan just likes his dramatic stories a bit too much. He’d rather tell us a story about how we’ll give nuclear codes to a rogue AI. I can’t say 100% that will never happen, but I can say with confidence that it is not the kind of problem we need to be worrying about today. Our problems are much more subtle and strange.

My favorite color is green, and I’ve been arbitrarily favoring green candies my entire life. I have had like 2 bags of candy EVER that had more green than any other flavor. It is always like this. Too many green haters out there

I thought this was confusing so I checked, this movie never released in theaters. So maybe that’s the cutoff
