Besides streaming, i.e. the capability to watch the movies and series when you want and how much you want, and lowering the entry to produce videos for more people, they pretty much reinvented cable. Or did I miss something substantial?

My understanding of the whole “being beneficial for humanity” is that:
- It’s kind of a meme that you need to have as a silicon valley start-up. Like Google’s niw dropped “don’t be evil”.
- If the founders and the investors, the share holder, get rich or richer, then this is already beneficial to humanity. In a net positive way similar to trickle-down-economics. At least thatvis what I think their line of thinking is.
Having said that, I think LLMs or Machine Learning can be used for useful things but I also think - as stated - the message " being beneficial for humanity" is hollow in a broader sense.

I can understand why creators unhappy with this situation.

I actually hope for a spaceship full of billionaires on the way to Mars. What possibly could go wrong?
