“Lionsgate is immediately recalling our trailer for ‘Megalopolis,’” the company said Wednesday. “We offer our sincere apologies to the critics involved and to Francis Ford Coppola and American Zoetrope for this inexcusable error in our vetting process. We screwed up. We are sorry.”
Certainly an interesting light into how trailers are made - entirely separate "film" almost.
Seagull consulting has come to marketing, I see.
Thats a really weird play on their part.. But other that that, the movie looks like it could be good
"Built"? Did an LLM "build" their title, too?
Now hold my beer for a second, English is just my second language, but "built" is past tense for "build", isn't it?
Nobody says they "built a trailer". Created, edited, made, maybe even "put together". But not "built". It technically works, but it's still wrong.
*Thinking about it more, I'd bet the program mixed up the word for house trailer or something else physical. Build/built would track better for that.
Not a native speaker, but if I wanted to boil it down to a word I would use "made a trailer". I think you are right about the algoritm confusing a movie trailer with a physical trailer.
I think the issue is that this marketing consultant didn't build anything. They just prompted an LLM to generate output
Good point!
