It'll require tens to hundreds of hours to script the flow of the AI content, to edit, make adjustments, clean it up, make the scenes link together smoothly, fix small glitches. Even with far more advanced AI, it won't come together like a movie people would enjoy watching, without vast human labor involved.

Sub one percent of people are going to be willing to put in the hours to do it.

The bulk of the spammed created content will be: the masses very briefly playing with the generative capabilities, producing low quality garbage that after five minutes nobody is interested in and then the masses will move on to the next thing to occupy a moment of their time. See: generative image media today. So few people care about the crazy image creation abilities of MidJourney or Flux, that you'd think it didn't exist at all (other than the occasional related headline about deepfakes and or politics).




Much of those editing steps could be streamlined and/or straight up automated so that estimate will come way down over time
