- Jusu's last film, Nanny, won the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance
- She has now "made" an AI film with Sora that is going to premiere at the Tribeca film festival
- Users dug up a tweet she made from a year ago where she mourns what AI is going to do to filmmaking
A year and a month ago:

AI will become mock representation--an empty mimicry of black and brown people's light commodified and vomited back to us.
