I know BBC bashing is popular, but does anyone give a flying fuck what Cate Blanchett thinks about AI? How the hell does that constitute news?

The story is poorly written. Look a few paragraphs down and you'll see she was asked specifically about how AI use in films might affect actors, which is a genuine issue, worth talking about, and something actors can validly give their opinion on without being tech experts. For some reason they decided to open the story with her comments on AI in general.

Journalists are obsessed with LLMs for the understandable reason that a lot of their low-grade listicle-writing and press-release-rephrasing jobs are at immediate risk.

And there's nothing journalists love more than writing about journalism and things that affect it.
