One can't really enjoy life much if you don't have financial means to survive. This technology promises to wipe of hundred's of thousands of jobs in media production - from videographers, actors, animators, designers, camera person working in TV, Movie production all are one click away from losing job.

Most of those jobs only existed for about two generations of human history. Who knows what future jobs will exist.

do people even want that?

i thought the point of tv was to sit back and be entertained, usually through some form of storytelling. personally, i don't want to have any part in the creation. if anything custom content would be annoying, because i'd lose the only social aspect of tv (discussing with others)

I'm sure the AI itself or some social media prompt sharing service can generate the narrative.

I think it will be much sooner than that. And the TV is already in your pocket.
