It will cut costs by 90% because an AI will be able to replace executives & their disproportionatly over-inflated salaries & bonuses right?
Dreamworks co-founder Jeff Katzenberg says AI will cut cost of animation movies by 90% within the next three years:
“In the good old days, you might need 500 artists and years to make a world-class animated movie. I don’t think it will take 10% of that three years from now.”

On the flip side: it also means that the starving underpaid animator will be able to make his / her own damn movie all alone without even needing those fat cat executives.

There are already plenty of individuals and small teams doing amazing things with current technology, not to mention millions of currently employed artists, writers, actors etc. How do you propose these solo AI devs avoid starving while generating their own movie. UBI?

"in the good old days when we actually hired people" what a horseshoe of a human being/boss.

Replacing CEOs would make way more sense because CEOs don’t actually do a lot of real work, and an AI CEO would probably be less of a hassle for human workers to deal with.

Any AI generated video I have seen yet are just extremely weird unrelated images warped into each other in an awful way. If they think this could replace anything, they might not be suitable for their own job?

They think they can cut costs until they tell the AI to make Shrek a little bit greener and see the results.
