That a dude with a couple cameras and a plate of appetizers can make something worth $82.5 million and a media company looks at that and goes "couldn't we make even more money if we had AI do it?" tells you exactly how stupid these people are

Planning and executing the washing and then hanging to dry of the endless loads of laundry I do every weekend has become like Zen meditation for me. I’ll go down there at 1 a.m. to hang some linens. Having to use my dryer feels like massive personal failing. All this: very unexpected.
