GenAI promises, explicitly, to remove every last bit of friction in expressing an idea. Every single actually creative person has experienced the experience of friction being necessary to get to the ideas that are *actually worth expressing*

Had the director or author used genAI, that first, absolutely pigshit awful draft is all you could *ever* get. They would never, not once, have needed to have a second and then a third and then a thousandth idea.

That movie or game or book you love, went through friction, the first thousand lowest hanging stupid ideas had to be cut away and tossed out. The end product you see, and love, is the *millionth* idea expressed.

Look at the first draft of basically every movie you love. The original, lowest hanging fruit, very first idea of the movie. Odds are it is absolute dogshit, pure unfiltered ass, the stupidest fucking idea you have ever heard followed by one somehow even stupider. That is all genAI promises.
