At the speed of culture

From this Guardian piece on how AI is changing filmmaking:

“I’m trying to prove a point,” says Mallal. “Which is that you can make really good stuff at a high level – but fast, at the speed of culture. Hollywood, especially, moves incredibly slowly.”

The pro-AI arguments I’m familiar with have mostly been around lowering barriers to entry, “democratising” who gets to make stuff and reducing cost, enabling more creative risks, and so on.

But I hadn’t thought of it this way before: reducing the delay between what’s happening and telling stories about it on screen.
