Hi. I think you combined comments of two separate people as coming from one person. My understanding is that OP agrees that your reasonable perspective is valid and reasonable and will do it’s best to be considerate about things like that it in the future.

It walks, sounds, smells and looks like a bullshit. I wonder what could it be?

It don’t. Mostly becouse it don’t have to. Your online behavior is easier accessible and a better predictor… (pretty bad over-all, but still better. Digital Marketing Bubble is bursting!)

Oh, that’s simple. They are idiots that don’t understand the product they sell.

Imagine that you are a best in the word graphic designer. And you have to sell your logo to someone, who literally don’t see the difference between quality work and the logo that their nice did in ms paint.

In their mind those are the same picture, so why should they invest in you while you are 300x more expensive?

The don’t see it, so their use data - that they also don’t understand - to look for X factors and came up with idiotic conclusions like “star trek movies with older first captains perform better than movies with younger first capitan, so good script should have old one” or “movies with 3 joks per 5-minutes performe better than movies with one joke per 5 minutes”… or “jar-jar bings”…

When future comic book author of the masterpiece Bone finaly got his 5-minute meeting with publisher who was basicly a godfather-legend-who-is-who off paperstrips he heard “you should redraw all your comics so all speech-bubbles are thought-bubbles. Why? Garfield uses thought-bubbles, and it’s so successful”.

Soulcrushing.

It’s the same reason why all all translations are shit now. People who decide are not literate enough to distinguish nuances of top-level translations from product of Google translate.

You’re thinking additional 30k to make sure that a script is good is rounding error in the cost of the movie. They are thinking, typing one page should take like 10-minuts right? So with $15/h…"

Remember, for them LOTR and Hobbit are “just as good” source materials for epic blockbuster trilogy.

They are literally quality-blind. Cost-cutting is all they bring to the table.

You’re describing my Facebook wall.

Do you remember when writers strike, and the producents paid to cut leafs of trees, to denny them comfort of marching in shadow? It seems there is no limit of how much corporations are willing to pay to get rid of the inconveniences of dealing with human beings.

It seems that AI is amazing tool, that is bound to be used to make everything worse.

If you have this, you should have a sing-along blog as well.

Gold.
