Then you're not trying hard enough. North or nothing!
The amount of hard drive space that would be taken up by taking a screenshot every ten seconds isn't negligible either.
Don't get me wrong, I love the idea in theory. I remember ages ago wishing that my web browser, which I knew was already storing a local cache of the full text of every webpage I visited for some reason, could just let me do essentially a Google search of just that data, on demand, so I wouldn't have to resort to bookmarking every single page I ever saw that interested me in case I'd want to remember where it was later. And I still wish that was a thing! How has it taken so long for both Mozilla and Google to not realize how useful that would be?
They don't want the browsers to be that useful: they want you exposed and on the internet so your information can be monetized.
Browsers do want to be that useful. Browsers want to become so useful that they could replace your entire operating system.
But Microsoft doesn't want browsers to be that useful, because everyone complains when they try to make their own browser that useful.

This is the dumbest tech bubble since the last one.
They will spend billions doing absolutely anything other than just asking what we want and building that.

Dudes gonna make avatar 3 with three other people, and two of them will be cast services.
How exactly does CGI work? Have the artists really been modeling every individual leaf this whole time? Or have they been using generative tools and we just didn't hear about it?
Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V. They modeled ONE leaf, then manipulated visible models on the tree and adjusted textures to make the majority dissimilar in the panning shot the camera does. Hundreds of hours on resources to make a set piece that (granted, tweaked and reused rampantly.) that gets 5 seconds of exposure.
Iterative tools will GREATLY help in cutting down the time needed to make backgrounds and set pieces... it's a jump similar to what computers did to special effects in general.
Problem is: they won't just use it to make backgrounds, eventually some suit will give the studio a starving artists budget and tell 'em to make a blockbuster and they'll have to entirely use AI to make it... and it's going to suck.
