Right now in Hollywood, the screenwriters of the Writers Guild of America are on strike.
I know this is true, but it hasn't affected my viewing habits one iota.
And one reason they're on strike is the fear that AI will take their jobs, churning out mediocre content quickly and cheaply that helps streamers' bottom lines even if it doesn't contribute much culturally speaking.
So their jobs are churning out mediocre content quickly and cheaply that helps streamers' bottom lines even if it doesn't contribute much culturally speaking?
I mean, yes. True. Just odd to hear them admit it.

Twilio - an API service for sending messages to people, which before Twilio was a confusing mess - replaced its iconic billboard that said simply Ask your developer with one that says How can I reduce acquisition costs by 65%?

I've been rewatching series 5 of Doctor Who - new Doctor Who, not old Who, which is denoted by seasons and half of season 5 is lost anyway - and it mostly holds up well except for the two-part story in the middle, which was written by Chris Chibnall and is a slow and dreary mess where the characters play hot potato with the idiot ball.
Chris Chibnall just happens to be the man who took over the show for series 11 and turned the entire thing into a slow and dreary mess where the characters play hot potato with the idiot ball.
Cheesy as hell, yes, but so is the anime. They seem to have embraced the cheese and kept the spirit, which is encouraging.
If you don't have kids you might not have heard of One Piece, but it's an industry in itself. The anime has run for over 1000 episodes (plus fifteen movies), and the manga has sold half a billion copies.
Will I be watching it? Probably not. The anime has run for over 1000 episodes, and I think I've seen one of those. But if Netflix can produce something that doesn't suck, even now, there might still be hope for us all.
