I've been thinking a lot about this across many different mediums, not just filmmaking, and I think it's one worth digging deeper on.*

What is lost when losing the (understandably annoying) process of the grind? By letting LLMs do the busy work, do you lose the opportunity to stumble into randomness? Do you lose the understanding of what is possible/interesting with the medium?

And do you end up in this derivative future where decisions are made by a system that was trained on all the previous uses of it?

Obviously that's fairly hyperbolic, but I have absolutely felt the pull of it all. When it decides to take a couple extra steps I didn't ask for creatively and I think "eh, that's fine."

*EDIT: I wrote this and looked back and this SOUNDS like an LLM wrote it. See what I mean??????
