I remember reading somewhere that Netflix produced shows needs to cater to "second monitor" usage, or passive watching. As in constantly repeating plot points, simpler plot, anything that makes it easy to follow something while doing anything else

AI slop is just another way they do it. Even better, no need to deal with pesky actor unions or production unions and other such annoying anticapitalist things.
