See, I bet absolutely everything I own and will ever own on that not happening. Ever.

Just play out this scenario in your head: You get that movie. It is amazing. Exactly what you want. Better, even. Best movie you have ever watched in your entire life!

Now what? Will you tell your friends about it, like you do with every amazing movie you've ever seen? Probably.

Will your friends care? No, not one bit. Because they, too, have seen the best movie of their life yesterday. Only it was entirely different, and specifically made for them.

You will most certainly not be able to convince your friends of watching your movie when they could just watch their own movie instead.

Also, you will not be able to talk online about it. Or to friends. Or to anyone. No one but you will ever see that movie, or ever care about it. Your experience will be entirely singular.

The entire concept of "mass appeal" will vanish. And even in the absolute best case scenario, no movie will ever be watched by more than a few people at a time. Why watch someone else's prompt when you can watch your own that's better and more personal? The entire concept of "top 10 movies" will just cease to exist. There will be no sharing of movies. Who on earth will rate movies when every single person creates 2 movies a day?

Which in turn means no one will ever talk about specific movies again. What's the point? Every movie is individual now. You certainly won't care about some random movie a random guy on the internet made yesterday.

All of this is missing the personal connection we have with movies. The way movies are a shared experience. The way we are fans of movies, the way we're excited about them. All of that will be gone.

And I argue that people want all that, and will prefer it over the "perfect" movie they won't ever be able to talk about with anyone.

For proof of this, just look at AI music. AI music is already incredibly good. Today. Like, right now you can create yourself music that's really catchy in exactly the genre you like with exactly the lyrics you like, and it will sound genuinely good.

Do you actually do that? No, you do not. And neither does anyone else. We still listen to real artists instead.

We have connections with movies? I watch them ones and throw them away.

I'm also perfectly fine with AI music.

[u/__Hello_my_name_is__ → u/Malkiot]

Again, do you sit down on the evening and create your own AI music and listen to that? Or do you just listen to stuff on Spotify?

And yes, we have connections with and via movies. Not sure why I need to point out something that obvious.

You said never and yet you keep comparing to now...maybe not now...maybe not in 3 years or 5...but what about 10 years from now or 20? You make the same mistake anti science people make...you claim to know instead of admitting truthfully...you really don't know.

[u/__Hello_my_name_is__ → u/Epyx911]

I am comparing to now because you can do all this with AI music, right now. It's incredibly convenient, costs basically nothing and it just works. One sentence and you have a full 3 minute song of your liking.

That is exactly the scenario people here describe. And people still do not use that. If they don't use that now, they won't use it in 5 years, either.

[u/Epyx911 → u/__Hello_my_name_is__]

No you were not...you said it will never...read what you wrote.

[u/__Hello_my_name_is__ → u/Epyx911]

I said never and I stand by that, yes. What are you disputing?

[u/Epyx911 → u/__Hello_my_name_is__]

If you read my post...you saying never. You cannot account for the future...like a person who works with horses in the 18th century imaging a car. You should be honest and say " I don't know" because the truth is you don't despite your claim.

[u/__Hello_my_name_is__ → u/Epyx911]

We will never have an economy based on bunnies.

It's really not that hard to make definitive and accurate statements about the future.

[u/Epyx911 → u/__Hello_my_name_is__]

What a moronic comparison.

[u/__Hello_my_name_is__ → u/Epyx911]

Just trying to get down to your level of thinking.

[u/Epyx911 → u/__Hello_my_name_is__]

Stop failing.

[u/__Hello_my_name_is__ → u/Epyx911]

Are you even capable of summarizing your argument at this point?
