love the call out that they dont create anything. tired of money giving evil old fucks creative ownership
I've been calling them WORMs for about a year. White, old, rich, men. See the republican party as well lol.
That's pretty good. Though maybe 'wyrm' is more accurate, since they hoard wealth and destroy everything else.
I doubt too many white young rich men are in CEO positions (some sure, but not the majority)
No, but their trust funds are bad enough.
This is retarded and we should not be congratulating this person on this racist behavior. Shitty evil rich people exist from both genders and from all races and ethnicities, and have now for 30+ years. This might’ve been true back in the day with no women’s rights or no minority rights but it’s not now.
Bigoted, racist, and throwing out no such thing as white men still being disproportionately in power dog whistles...
But look at alllll these outliers! Just because 73% of millionaires were white in 2013 doesn't mean 8% weren't black, Asian, or Hispanic! We're ina post-Racist power hungry oligarch era now!

Out of 724 billionaires... 7 are black. So less than 1% when this article came out.

I know you're a troll, but c'mon lol. Be better.
It’s unhealthy to assume everyone on the internet is a troll. If you’re trying to make a point via my username, it’s randomly generated from a password manager and entirely irrelevant.
The real irony about the AI controversy is that I could see AI replacing the studio execs long before it can replace the creative people.
An AI compare scripts to existing scripts that are popular. Send the scripts to actors and directors based on similarity to the work they've done before. If there's enough popular actors agreeing to work on the project and if it's part of an existing popular franchise, green light it.
Of course having AI do the jobs of studio execs would mean we'd have a lot of big budget movies that are kinda unoriginal and a lot of typecasting. But that's exactly what we have now.
AI could easily do the job of a studio exec.
The creator sells the ownership rights. That's how they get paid if they don't produce it themselves.
Right, because they need things like food and house. And some guy that was born rich provides that money, so that theyll make even more money for no other reason than they already had money. To buy ownership of more money making ideas they didnt come up with.
