In 3-5 years, the programmers who created the AI that write the scripts will want compensation, and if they don’t get it the AI will go on strike.
Begs the question: Who gets the Emmy or Oscar nomination for best screenplay or script of it is generated using AI? Begs the bigger question: What’s the point of AI generated media? I know there are people who watch TV to enjoy mindless pablum, but that is not me. I like to be challenged by the media I consume. I like it to be about more than what’s on the surface. I have no doubt that AI will one day generate content that is thought provoking, but a computer has no interest in being thought provoking. A computer has no interest in being heartfelt or earnest or comical or capricious. I don’t watch media whose sole purpose is to make money. And that would be the sole purpose of every bit of media conceived by AI. I’m sure it will happen. And I’m sure it will make money for somebody. But is that the point?
