Do you have at least the order of magnitude for this? Does it also consume as much water as data centers? Has the entertainment industry ever needed to attract US$7T within 5 years to do what it does?

Is it? How? Will it really advance life or it is just a probability? Advance in what way, and why do you think being faster is better, and if better, better at what? If it is a probability, what exact number is it? What if it doesn’t happen in the way you think it will?

No I don't. But I wanted to call that out.

These are all decent questions. I don't have the answer. However, I do know that movies and shows are for entertainment. They do not enhance productivity.
