I found this comment from Diller interesting:
“They are some weird algorithmic process that has created things that last 100 minutes or so.”
Is he saying movie *plots* are now generated by AI (based on the types of plots viewers most like to watch) ?
No different than explaining that Motown’s songs were made on an assembly line.
Physically maybe no, but conceptually yes.

I’m guessing from the context that algorithms are being used to make choices about themes, content, casting, plot endings, etc. that are predicted to maximize revenue. AI-generated plots are still absurd, from what I’ve seen.
Intelligence in Hollywood has always been Artificial.
