We're going to get to a point where ML will just dynamically generate entire movies custom tailored to each person's taste; all you do is pay for the compute time (plus a small fee) to generate the movie.
A shared culture is valuable to society. With social media vs. old school television, we don't have nearly the same shared reality with media/news/life. We walk around with headphones listening to nothing but our custom playlists and watching our custom shit. Now, we're going to have customized movies and content that we can't explore with society at large?
I think this is a very close-minded view. "old school television" is also a very new invention, we went most of history without all watching the same thing.
People will still share the things they find interesting with the people they care about.
Before movies you also had a family based agrarian society lol. Talking about AI like it's some return to the pasture, despite its potential to further alienate us, is silly.
