The big question is: Could cutting edge LMM's make Netflix content less shit?

“twice as fast and at half the cost of previous options.”
This means they are going also half the subscription cost any day now, just you wait. It will totally happen. Totally. For sure.
You guys still pay for Netflix ? 🤔😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Netflix released 300 titles this year? Quantity over quality.
I didtched Netflix long before GenAI was a thing.
I definitely noticed it when I put on Barbie A Touch of Magic for my daughter to watch one time. The stores in the background had gibberish writing on the store fronts.
So evidently, people either can't tell when AI is being used or don't care when AI is being used.
It was always going to be the case that AI additions to media would eventually be unnoticed, it not being declared beforehand out of fear that it will lead to negative reactions is the very telling point.
People care if it's used, and those who want to profit from its use by removing artists and other workers know that they can't profit if we know it's there.
They don’t share viewing numbers for a reason.
We might realize we all only watch 4 shows on repeat and spend the rest of the time scrolling past all the slop.
Kind of shocking the numbers above don't say anything about viewership at all, really. Just that the titles exist somewhere.
But Facedeer is a notorious troll, so his big "gotcha" moment is apparently that people can't tell or enjoy this stuff. I doubt it. Netflix trash definitely includes $200 million blockbuster flops that nobody knows about (have you or most movie fans ever heard of Fountain of Youth?), that are getting churned out from the back catalog of Skydance, owned by the son of surveillance king Larry Ellison.
If nobody wants a Guy Ritchie heist blockbuster with John Krasinski and two Star Wars alums including Natalie Portman, who's to say they "want" anything worse from Netflix?
Not directly, but it'll give a sense of cheapness and sameness to their product.
What a coincidence, I also cancelled Netflix this year, after over 10+ years with them.
Same, 17 year subscriber tho, top tier or 4k plan since it was first available
As soon as I finish Avatar I am canceling as well.
Join the party. I think their algorithm finally figured out I wouldn’t watch slop long before AI and so I rarely ever got suggested any of their new releases. It would just show the same suggestions over and over with one new show or movie every couple months.
I went to Apple TV and haven’t been able to keep up with their new shows. I’m sure it’ll be garbage eventually and I’ll drop it when the quality drops.
I'll continue to use free sources like the public library. Fuck Netflix.
The "quality" of the content should have been a clue here.
Vote with your wallet. So far *no one *is. It's maddening.
(Yes, I know, you did. If you're about to comment that you did you aren't the intended audience of this comment.)
That's dope that artists can flesh out their worlds better and make higher quality content for less money. I think the viewers will benefit if the creativity and direction remains human as it is now
Ooh wow, technology is being used to replace humans by a big tech company! Who could have ever seen that happening? /s
I do my bestest to avoid the big tech companies of the US.
