Entertainment might be pointless to some. I dream of having an on-demand Netflix that will generate whatever type of content I can imagine on demand, or better yet already know my preferences and all I have to do is tell it my mood and it will start playing something I would like.

A difference in goals, I guess. Having programs generated just to pander to my existing tastes sounds horrible to me. I want to be challenged and surprised and have my tastes tested and changed in unpredictable ways. I also want to watch stuff that's written by humans and acted by humans, because there's a sense of shared life there that there isn't in an AI-generated video.

It's also then just one step removed from refusing to accept any friends or romantic partners who don't do exactly what you want at all times because life is supposed to be tailored to you.
