Former Netflix VP: Is Big Tech the New Gatekeeper of Culture? | Jerusalem Sessions

Erik Barmack, former VP of International Originals at Netflix and author of The Ankler's Reel AI newsletter, is one of the most astute commentators on Hollywood's transformation in the age of AI. Barmack joins Movie Eaters to discuss how Big Tech, data, and AI are reshaping the future of storytelling. Drawing on his decade at Netflix - where he helped turn local series like Money Heist and Dark into global phenomena - he reveals why creativity can't truly be predicted by algorithms, and explores the ethical crisis facing creative industries as AI transforms how stories are made, distributed, and valued. Recorded live on stage at the inaugural Jerusalem Sessions at the National Library of Israel. Movie Eaters is a podcast about cinema, philosophy, and everything in between, hosted by Nitay Dagan, Liad Herman, and Arnon Rosenthal. Jerusalem Sessions, a project of the Jerusalem Media Initiative, was held for the first time in December 2025, bringing together creatives and entertainment industry leaders in Israel to explore the future of storytelling in turbulent times.
