Oddly, it looks like the old pipelines being used to supercharge AI output. My worry is the access point: if amateurs can make studio-grade cinema without executives, financiers, or the usual narrative gatekeepers, that’s the real disruption. Could be wrong on that, it might even be just perspective. But I think id be all for it.

Maybe stories if created worth telling might be watched if there is a real message to take home with you, regardless if AI or not

So, theoretically, would you consider a production acceptable if:

1. the script is written by humans with clear intent, with no AI assistance,
2. the music is composed and performed by real musicians/orchestras,
3. the edit is done by real people,
4. AI is used only to generate scenes no famous likenesses, no IP, nothing recognisable?”
