Empowering randos is why I’m still excited for video diffusion. Anyone can crank out anything they can describe, and it only looks a little bit like shit. Less shit than last year! Surely improving, so this is the most shit it will ever look again. If you start from real footage of real people and places then only the parts you change look kind of shit.
This is completely sincere, by the way. We are going to get over any lingering tells, the same way we did for CGI. It can be distracting when it’s egregious, like when Legolas turns into a cartoon to get on a horse, but nobody yells “slop!” and throws out their DVD box set.
I’ve read novels that deserve an adaptation which studios would never fund. I’ve read fanfiction better than their sequels. I’ve seen webcomics that were plainly walking back ambitions for a cartoon. What a single dedicated weirdo is capable of has now massively expanded - and nobody can tell them “no.” Strap in.
A reasonable argument in its best case. Removing barriers for good content to flourish is a good thing. The cost for removing these barriers in this case is destroying our planet, enabling shareholders to manipulate and exploit the working class, and - when the bubble explodes - will leave the public with a huge bill. What comes after the collapse might be more sustainable and interesting.
