A Future of Netflix

This is more akin to the Star Trek fantasy generated by the buds attached to the CTO’s temples in “USS Callister” than “Bandersnatch”, which doesn’t try to make the viewer happy with its choices and presents a meta plot to those who rewind multiple times.<p>I’m sure Netflix will try its hand at faked video at some point, but its strategy of giving creators a high level of creative control seems to be producing good results. Regressing to generic AI-written storylines wouldn’t evoke many smiles.

The idea that AI can create great literature and drama is such a load of nonsense. Its beyond ridiculous. The human brain is incredibly complex and only the very best of the best create anything on TV worth watching. When it comes to literature its even more absurd. How could AI create Great Expectations or a masterpiece like Bleak House.

Scary but realistic in my opinion. It is an interesting question what other influences except yourself matters. Like &quot;oh voting is tomorrow, let us add some terror in it&quot; or much simpler &quot;the new chocolate bar which launches tomorrow&quot;.

Versificators already existed in the 1984 story. This is some kind of brave new world-ish version of them, giving individuals control but still staying distopic. A device that can precisely read your brain&#x27;s moods would probably be really helpful for advertisers who want to find out how you react to certain stimuli.

4 hours with no human interaction and food, sounds awful.
