on their own computer using open weight chinese models?

More seriously

1) >users will generate their own

some people write fanfic, most just watch/read instead.

2) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebel_Without_a_Crew explains how film maker will film, with whatever they have. AI will enable some people to make what is not financially feasible right now for a single person to do.

'Unique' movie/stories creation will continue.

And like with the rest of things AI can do, the question is more 'who's going to pay for person-made vs "algorithmically optimized AI generated story'.

Same question we have of 'AI generated code' vs 'this code was written by a person'.

Sora was QUICKLY shut down due to the astronomical cost. On what basis do you claim that using language models to generate feature films would be cheap?

Sora isn't cheap, but regular films regularly cost more than $100m to film. Spending $20k on tokens is relatively cheap.

		I would be surprised if production costs for films regularly exceeds $100M. I assume the vast majority of 9 figure films have marketing as the 9 figure expense, including pay for high profile actors/directors/producers, which is also a form of marketing.
