Interesting. Well, I despise all reality T.V. so maybe they can produce some good documentaries I’ll watch.

I think they’re thinking they can patch this over with reality tv (or at least they did in the last writer’s strike), documentaries, and with international content. I’m betting Netflix is shifting a ton of money towards the Asian and European markets for next year’s content.

Netflix’s plan is foreign content, coupled with reality, but their long term goal is ai generated content.
Theyre… special. They think their farts smell nice and they’re smarter than everyone else, they just want to get likeness rights locked down now or they’ll do without.
Apparently their execs saw promising demos, they believe the engineers will have the whole problem solved in 3 years, the engineers know they’re smoking crack.
Ai is such a massive con game to cover for the fact that we’re hitting market saturation in multiple sectors and roi will drop.

reminds me of uber, who were likely sold the dream of a fleet of fully self driving cars within a few years, so they only had to deal with pesky "employees" for that long.

Sorry, I said this and I wasn’t very fair to them.
Their plan is to start by taking other media, particularly comics and Manga, and generating near shot for shot reproductions starting in animation then moving to “augmented live action”, basically some guys and cgi fills in the rest.
I’m not sure they can’t do it, it’ll just take longer than they expect .

You’re right, but I also think they’re more realistic, it’s about having the alternative source of content as a genre and expanding out from there.
