Reposted by 3DBeerGogglesDerrick @derrickwb.bsky.social · 13hThe idea of LLMs being used to write books is pretty consistent with the techbro misunderstanding of the world where they believe that completion metrics are the goal. Literature would be better if there were 100x the books. Kids will be smarter if they finish homework in 5% of the time. 1363

![Agents of moral panic
Characterizing the reactions to the mod and rocker conflict, Cohen identified four key agents in moral panics: mass media, moral entrepreneurs, the culture of social control, and the public.[1][8][22]
Media – especially key in the early stage of social reaction, producing "processed or coded images" of deviance and the deviants.[30] This involves three processes:[8]
exaggeration and distortion of who did or said what;
prediction, the dire consequences of failure to act;
symbolization, signifying a person, word, or thing as a threat.
Moral entrepreneurs – individuals and groups who target deviant behavior
Societal control culture – comprises those with institutional power: the police, the courts, and local and national politicians. They are made aware of the nature and extent of the 'threat'; concern is passed up the chain of command to the national level, where control measures are instituted.
The public – these include individuals and groups. They have to decide who and what to believe: in the mod and rocker case, the public initially distrusted media messages, but ultimately believed them.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rbjag77ol7yqto2ph5gxttf2/bafkreigwfugj7usapiziqw6nogagsuzjz4xu473jzuwp7srvy2ivx7usze)
![Q: A couple years ago at IDFA, I saw this movie "About a Hero," which is this partly Al-generated hybrid documentary that tries to recreate the atmosphere of your films.
A: The intention of this young filmmaker was never to remake any [of my films], but making something in the spirit. And I immediately said, "You will fail. It is such a stupid idea. It's phenomenally, abysmally stupid. I will not take part in it." He wanted me to explain things and have my voice in it.
I said, "You are alone. There's such a thing as free speech, which I respect. So go ahead and fail." And it is a failure, period.
It's so standardized that Al can step in because there's not real storytelling. It's mimicry of something that has happened before. And I welcome Al to replace all the idiots who are into nothing but repeating, repeating, repeating until it's ad nauseam.
When it's ad nauseam, please, please, please let Al step in and do the job.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:v5vphilwcf6nunioeyrpxw6g/bafkreibeadpx66jtqlttglhgbgkew6g65haxqngz5yt6p3ybwyi5zney54)
