Considering how important algorithms are to studios, John Mulaney would expect them to 'have more hits' if data was actually helpful.
John Mulaney, in a recent interview, discussed the entertainment industry's reliance on data for predicting hit shows or movies. He expressed skepticism about the dependability of data in creating successful content, suggesting that while studios aim to use data to minimize risk and increase hits, the unpredictable nature of audience preferences often defies these analytics. Mulaney highlighted that some of the biggest successes in entertainment were unexpected, not necessarily data-driven, implying that creativity and intuition still play significant roles in what becomes popular. He humorously noted that if data were truly reliable, studios would have a much higher success rate with their projects.
