The Normalization of AI in Media is Dangerous

So far, good story, good acting. I've noticed a lot of complaints about the heavy use of AI in this series. I see both sides of the argument.

I understand a series of this quality, if it was done entirely with human labor, human creativity, etc, it would be quite costly. However, my biggest concern is that we as a global society start to normalize the use of AI in media.

We have reached a point where we do not know what is real and what is fake. Meaning societies are now exposed to crafty manipulation without much oversight. There should be clear warnings placed on series that use AI generated content.

Even the music is mostly AI generated. I don't know how how I feel about not having an artist to connect to a piece of work. The beauty of humanity is our uniqueness and our talent. When I went looking for the artist who performed the song at the end of episode 1, I was disappointed to not find it and then realize in the credits it's possibly AI generated. This realization is not just annoying, it feels like I can never form an attachment to this piece of work in the long term.

I suspect rewatch value on shows and movies will plummet, what will happen to cult classics and media that you resonate with because they are human?

I use AI daily for work, but in media, I just think the creative arts show now be tainted by this technology or at least heavily regulated.

I'm especially nervous about the continued use of AI in media as an American going into our next election season. Many people don't know how to spot AI generated content. Just imagine the confusion and misinformation we will deal with in 2027. This is a sad time.
