Steven Spielberg gives his thoughts on AI usage in filmmaking:
“I don't believe there is any substitute for the soul. I don't think that's an algorithm that is inventible... don't tell me I don't have the right antagonist in this story, don't tell me how to write my dialogue, don't tell me where the camera has to go…
If AI wants to help me find locations, that's great. Saves us some leg work… Use AI as a tool, but do not use AI as the final word on anything creative.”

𝐍𝐄𝐖 @asiancha—Jonathan Han on Leslie Shimotakahara's latest novel, 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝐵𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑘𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 (Cormorant Books), came out on Sat 4 April 2026. "... deftly oscillates between the estrangement of two brothers and the history of Japanese Canadians."

Exciting, terrifying, and layered story replete with fascinating, flawed characters whose eccentricities and passions make it impossible to put them in neat little politically correct boxes. Come for the chase, stay for the singular, creative vision.
One of the best movies ever. it taps into the neurosis of every single group of people.
conservatives think its too woke, black people think its too racist, 4channers think its reddit slop, leftists think its not left enough, there’s no one likeable enough for your coworker.
Settler courts have always had Indigenous Peoples' best interests at heart... Oh, wait a minute....
