Missing AI Contributions
Hypothetically, AI suppose be a huge help to creators. Movies, music, animations, books, journalistic reports, software, architectural projects, and the like—all of this could easily be sped up, made cheaper, and, most importantly, improved in quality with the help of AI, even at its current level.
It seems like a whole bunch of people are engulfed in that, but you hardly see any of it on a large scale. In other words, maybe something has gotten a tiny bit cheaper somewhere, but it hasn't affected movie ticket prices or book costs. There aren't any widespread improvements in quality, faster release cycles, or, least of all, price drops for anything in the realm of creativity and art.
It feels like all these improvements are stuck at a grassroots level, while the big players are massively resisting it and all they do is complain, get outraged, demand something or other, and whip up panic.
