Why stop there? You could specify your personal tastes on how the characters should look and sound (although there would have to be a few limits where it would otherwise interfere with the plot/dialogue), and the AI would generate that. Each person could watch their own version of the movie.

Why stop at the production. Let me introduce you the "AI consumer"! Much better than your average Joe, AIs will be much, much more efficient at digesting all the new content

Love this. AI producer and AI consumer can go fuck together

That just leads to the demise of fandom if not worse

What I mean by worse is my idea for a Black Mirror episode if they accepted fan-submitted scripts as the tech-of-the-episode is some sort of still-wearable-on-head-but-connected-to-brain-by-reading-brainwaves device that enables its users to have all movies and TV they watch warped in this manner (and all other media that refers to them, from social media posts to actor interviews changed likewise when they see them) automatically according to what it's determined via brainwave-reading that the user wants even if they don't know what they want out of it. However the twist is thanks to a "mysterious glitch" (that the hypothetical episode would leave unclear if was deliberate vengeance-motivated sabotage or not) the devices now work on the real world for anyone who got them so they're trapped in seeing their ideal reality while actually interacting with the real reality that's seen by those who didn't get the device/dealt with canon movie/show plots e.g. someone could stay in a tiny run-down apartment with an abusive partner because they see their dream relationship in a luxury apartment and see, like, bruise-free skin and what are actually hits to outsiders manifesting to them as kisses

I came up with this idea when Black Mirror S5 got such a negative backlash it was ticking me off though it was also inspired by how fans of certain series (book, movie or TV) literally pretend installments they don't like/find problematic didn't happen so I was like, you want to "I reject your reality and substitute my echo chamber" here you go

That sounds horrible actually. We're already separated into media bubbles, breaking those bubbles down to be small enough as to fit a single individual...

Haven't we already been watching the fallout of socially isolated people stuck in virtual echo chambers? This is not a good idea.
