For the past few years, I’ve long considered Hollywood failed adaptations to be a non-issue because so long as industrial civilization exists, media companies are going to squeeze what they can out of IPs. So while Game of Thrones might have ended quite poorly, I figure we’re only a few decades away from a different rights-holder giving it another go.

Thus, I look forward to the AI-generated versions of famous works that deepfake the original cast into speaking (hopefully) better-written dialogue. Imagine when this technology is widespread, fanfic authors rendering their interpretation of works with the descendants of DALL-E. Everyone gets the dream adaptations and sequels and finales they want.
