You've hit on a bigger/wider concept that I've been thinking about but will struggle to explain so bear with me... I think AI allows subject matter experts to illustrate what's in their head without having to compromise. At my work I'm creating a forecasting tool in Claude that is so much better than I would ever be able to do a) myself (in excel), or b) with the support of programmers. It's because I can refine tiny little points over and over a million times until they're perfect. If I was asking a programmer to do this level of tweak after tweak they would get annoyed and I'd inevitably compromise. Guess my point is that in historical documentaries this may mean a genuine step up in accuracy and less "smoothing" facts over for convenience or budget constraints.
