Unironically, I think it is the casting of art as divine talent vs a basic human mode of communication that makes people think stick figures are an embarrassing way to communicate ideas. That embarrassment is what makes them want ai. They want to express ideas visually, but are embarrassed to.

The problem is when the story is not true, too self serving and misleads those who want to learn from their heroes.

At the same time, the best storytellers are those whose lies are more true than the facts. So who is to say that their mythology is fundamentally untrue?

It was on ad-supportrd tv now it's on subscription supported. The idea one is more greedy is ridiculous.
