QUOTABLE: “We’re amid one of those upheavals that hit the entertainment business every few decades. Streaming has allowed audiences to access pretty much any content they want whenever they like, here and around the world. It’s causing the death of broadcast TV as we knew it and quite probably cable, too. Then there’s AI, which, unlike streaming, isn’t just a distribution model but a whole new means of creation, posing an existential threat to the writers and actors who see themselves being supplanted by computers.” — Leader Board
