Some people suck. I think Leonardo DiCaprio is a bit of a piece of shit but that doesn’t change the fact that acting, writing, animation, sfx, etc. is a human creative endeavors. It doesn’t matter if some of them are coked out douchebags only in it for the money. They’re outnumbered by plenty of others that are in it for the craft and artistry and work in spite of shitty movies, under shitty people and in shitty environments for the chance to pursue their passions. The money hungry dipshits would do something else if they couldn’t make their money in film. The same can’t be said for the majority of people doing the actual work.

I work in the medical field and there’s a very similar parallel. I work in medicine because I want to help people, not because I’m well paid. I assure you, I’m not well paid. There are plenty of people in medicine that are though. Sone people get into it for the money. Usually, they don’t. The shitty ones move on when the money dries up and the people interested in doing what little bit of good we can do stick around because we don’t want to be anywhere else, doing anything else. We shouldn’t sell out the bulk of people in a creative field because some of them aren’t interested in the creativity.

AI automation would largely effect the peons working on a pittance and not the “coke head douchebags helping the 1% launder money”. You’re all edge and no point
