I realise I am going to come across exactly like this stock market trader the BBC was interviewing ages ago but I totally get the mentality. I've had a long plan of setting up my own game dev/media business and I am absolutely thrilled at all the bad shit that is happening to these awful companies. I know that traditionally it's bad karma to celebrate people losing their jobs and everything but in these particular instances and given they really are the absolute worse sorts of people getting the axe I think I can get away with it.

Hollywood, going down? That's fucking fantastic, can't stand the paedophile people traffickers. On top of that back in the day it would have been unthinkable for an outsider to come up with any kind of movies or short films to compete but now they're shooting themselves in the foot at every opportunity and the AI dispute with the writers and actors might be the thing that finally kills them or at least severely weakens their hold over media.

Games companies dying? Great, fuck them, they hate their own playerbase anyway and openly show they do. Not only that, like Hollywood they consistently produce shit and haven't made a single improvement in their workflows with the overall quality going to hell.

Journalists getting replaced by AI? That's even better, all of the stuff they spew out is going to be unwatchable and the AI could well be exploited at some point that even with left wingers the news is going to be discredited. Adding to that journalists simply won't have the same power as they once did so they won't be able to form convincing twitter mobs against specific people who stand up to them or just get in their crosshairs.

Everyone who cares about the state of journalism, films, games should be excited about what's going to happen and there's a lot of money to be made from these stupid fucks. Indie creators will now be able to get their foot in the door with films as Hollywood's reach diminishes. Indie game devs can compete with the big corporations even if they're shamelessly cloning other titles as long as it doesn't suck which I find hilarious. Citizen journalists as well are probably going to get far more attention online as the normies get fed up with the AI bots everywhere or react with horror as some 4chan autist manages to get the AI to spam gas the jews live on air to be edgy.
