I don't think that's what 01100011 is saying though.. he's saying he'd love to see a movie that didn't adapt the material in any way, it just completely faithfully translated every line of dialogue and action to the screen.

Presumably that would lead to a 42 hour Lord of the Rings movie with horrendous pacing issues etc. Which would make it a terrible business proposition for the movie industry now (literally: why?) but if an AI could spit it out cheaply a whole lot of LoTR fans would watch it avidly.

I think you're 100% correct that it would not be work of value. On the other hand, "The algorithm thinks this will be like that other thing people like" sounds like the exact model used for the majority of film and television today. Not least, this terrible rendition of Foundation.

>It sounds more like algorithmic factory production with no intention.

You just described modern Hollywood.
