This'll get shut down unless it's lobotomised to hell as an AI would look at the data, look at the films and go 'need the women to be hotter if you want to break even! Man needs to be inspiring for 10 million profit at box office! Stick to original storyline of this remake to gain more revenue from nostalgia!'
You are looking at it wrong, they are just going to push any claims of preferential hiring aside now and say "the AI is approving the script it isn't our fault."
Hollywood just got a scapegoat for everything they want to do. Expect film quality to deteriorate quickly.
So business as usual? Right now Hollywood is losing money FAST, most of it's projects are huge flops (cough The Flash) and they're losing relevance to foreign and streaming services, if their plan is scapegoat AI then they won't be around after 5 years to pander.
This is actually not true despite the constant failures. Each of those failures is getting subsidized. The studios aren't losing money by having terrible returns, they are breaking even.
So this is just another tool to keep their feet on the throats of creatives who are trying to do unique work that they don't want. They want black versions of classic films, and that is what the AI will keep selecting.
