Again, none of those things are “enjoying a book.”
And you don’t need AI to do any of those things. You can do them now if you want.
No you can't, economics won't allow it. Can you turns a novel into a comic or an anime or life action tv series? Creating good art or entertainment doesn't just require some brilliant creative idea, but specialists who work together on things, using expensive specialist equipment. Youtube and cheap video cameras allowed for an explosion of individual content creators to create shows, replacing things like e.g. cooking shows, or shows about building or houses or traveling or gardening.
With the right AI tools you could replace a lot of that. Obviously at a lower maximum quality. But we are already being fed corporate entertainment slop. There will be a lot of AI slop, but a few people will be able to turn their ideas into reality even if it's not quite "Hollywood quality". This short currently seems the best example. And the tools will only get better, and the medium will expand.
When VR headsets came out (oculus, vive) there was a lot of talk about VR movies. I suspect that only with AI tools will we be able to have the creative freedom (= low capital costs) to do things like that.
