Generative AI has done so much damage to everything
'Blue Planet III' will deliberately include murkier and less polished underwater footage to assure viewers it's real and not AI-generated 🌊
The David Attenborough-narrated series won't feature a single AI-generated frame

People keep trying to make sarcopterygian hexapods work even though it wouldn't ever happen
here's a better and way more underrated idea, just do stingrays

They used to KILL you for tracing anything and now AI has made it ok because "at least I'm not tracing AI" which is... Interesting.
War begins. Smallpox still exists in 1939s Europe. Immediate time-displaced plague with 30%+ lethality besets Africa. No other factor gets a chance to become relevant.

The arthropod world feels like a truly fallen world: everything is armed and armored, poisons and chemical weapons abound, deaths are horrible, you're an inconsequential one of countless many. The natural world at the human scale is comparatively fuzzy and friendly and edenic.

Rocky’s internal structure in PROJECT HAIL MARY (2026) is such a fascinating piece of creature design. An alien life-form unlike anything we’ve seen before.

It's actually INSANE how prescient this was.
They made this in 2011! This is basically what it's like to use computers now. It's barely exaggerated

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

“Pssh! Star Trek USED to be about progressivism, but now it’s woke gender ideology!”
Star Trek giving impassioned speeches on gender/trans identity in literally 1992-

Marketing teams being shit at their job has done more to harm the movie industry than any shitty director ever could.

Right now, you can reference mass culture because people still remember it. AI has all this rich content to mine
But eventually this will run dry. And so you’ll get brain rots referencing brain rots, all the way down
We’ve seen nothing in terms of slop yet

I'm really not a fan of how much "fantasy" media these days takes place in a video game world that operates according to video game logic

Their bodies need not reflect their reach. They manifest at will, spiral from the depths like sharks seizing a swimmer silhouetted above.
In the face of these beings, in your utter destitution, you will find that there are more shades of darkness than a mind can withstand. (2/3)

The real answer to this stuff is that there was an entire subset of talented blockbuster auteur (Jackson, Lucas, Zemeckis, Cameron, Ang Lee somewhat) who saw the advances in digital filmmaking we got in the 00's and it instantly fried their brains to a crisp.
