So, how much money do you think Matt and Trey are going to sue them for?

    Just FYI, the CEO of Fable Studios is one Edward Saatchi. His father is Maurice Saatchi whose advertising agency was partially responsible for ten years of Conservative rule under Margaret Thatcher. The family absolutely has previous with union bashing.

    False. The Hollywood strikes (plural) are not principally about AI.

    A more salient issue is that streaming TV & movie services do not pay residuals.

    Just watched it. Writers have nothing to worry about for now. I do admit I laughed once, though.

      You are making the same mistake I see a lot of people make when it comes to AI, which is looking at the status quo as a snapshot rather than a change over time.

      The last widely reported on AI generated ‘show’ was the Seinfeld one from…checks notes…a few months ago.

      The leap between what that was a few months back and this here is quite something.

      So your “right now” may be true for today, but quite possibly by as early as the end of this year there will very much be something to worry about.

      (Though really, there still won’t be much to worry about, as the future will almost certainly be AI plus human efforts, not either or.)

        I think you’re making the same mistake as people who thought self-driving cars would be here 5 years ago. You can’t just extrapolate out technological progress. The relatively easy things get solved first and relatively quickly but we may need a decade to solve some of the most challenging scenarios.

          Self driving cars were here five years ago, which is when Waymo first had driverless cars on roads. Tesla had a wide release of FSD ‘Beta’ three years ago.

          And there’s a gulf of a difference on the speed at which hardware that has an 8 year average refresh cycle grows in a market and software that can reach a hundred million users in 3 months.

    "Fable started in 2018 as a spinoff from Facebook’s Oculus (how times have changed since then), working on VR films — a medium that never really took off. Now it has seemingly pivoted to AI, "

    I wonder how much of the ai hype is just huge investments into hardware, looking for profits.

    Where’s the profanity, the swearing? AI, more like Artificially limited, that’s the only joke. Kyle not calling Cartman a fatass once, what?
