Paramount bids $108.4B for Warner Bros Discovery ($30/share), outbidding Netflix's $72B deal.

Two struggling legacy studios trying to save each other vs Big Tech takeover.

But it doesn't fix the real problem: traditional Hollywood's business model is dead.

Netflix buying Warner Bros has everyone freaking out, but missing the point:

Cinema attendance is dead. Streaming won.

The merger isn't killing Hollywood—it's admitting the traditional model already died. This is adaptation, not destruction.

Netflix acquiring WBD shows a paradox: as AI controls streaming, physical media gains value 🎬💿

DVDs offer ownership outside algorithms & content that won't vanish from platforms. Like vinyl, they may thrive BECAUSE of AI dominance.

Rewatching 2001: A Space Odyssey reminds me how early Kubrick explored AI alignment, system autonomy and human-machine trust. HAL feels like a prototype of today’s multimodal, high-stakes AI. Sci-fi, yes—but also a roadmap for modern tech.
