No matter how advanced an AI is I can never get past the idea that there is no soul behind it. I couldn't be bothered to care about the characters in a story. Imagine an animated movie where the script is AI, the art is AI, and the voice acting is AI. What am I supposed to care about when I watch it? How awesome the technology is while thinking about the people that got replaced so some even more underpaid "prompt engineer" can type out a few sentences on a laptop?

Until AI gains sentience, it's just a bunch of output from a fancy calculator. And that's so far off into the future I doubt any of us will be alive to see it.

We could be living in a complete A.I. existence right now.

And also... prompt engineers will never be as good as someone with artistic background who have the same tools. The limits of good film stories and characters are often blocked by the "money people" who don't have the same vision, who often choose projects that make them the most money. They often don't take risks.

I feel like A.I. will allow people with little access to Hollywood the ability to create original stories. The problem would be weeding out the onslaught of junk that's coming to get to that good stuff.
