I absolutely agree. I'm a professional screenwriter and the movie scenes an AI can write with just two sentences from me is astounding. Sure, it's full of cliches, repetitions and very on the nose dialogue and sometimes doesn't make sense, but it's incredible how far it has come. Some of these scenes are better than what you actually see on screen.

Filmmakers will soon be able to generate whole movies with just a few pages input and can see where different approaches might take them. Insanely helpful.

I think it might go like this:

In 5 years: some will use it as a tool, but it's still very raw

In 10 years: widely used tool, very helpful

In 15 years: AIs are making whole movies after minimal input from artists and artists are adjusting here and there

In 20 years: artists are only interfering with AI made movies as a form of quality control

In 40 years: AIs are generating beautiful and insanely emotionally impactful individual movies for individual people based solely on their online profile (preferences, taste, experiences, trauma, past relationships, shopping behaviour etc.)

In 50 years: with the growth of brain implants to enable feelings, and ultra high resolution VR, the concept of movies morphs into experiences, letting you plug into AI generated, bespoke, multi-day long fully immersive adventures.

In 100 years: AI has taken over all work, and humans have no purpose. So, to give people meaning, AI is generating entire lifetime experiences individualised for personal growth, challenge and purpose. The world looks pretty much exactly like it looks today and here you are, browsing Reddit and the AI cannot understand where it failed.

I‘m a writer director and I think filmmakers now will be the last of their kind. Agreed!

This projection makes the idea of my own death a lot easier to handle.

That's nice. But why?

The end of human creativity.. machines dominating our every move. All of these scenarios represent massive, rapid change, seemingly with the end game of human elimination. Why would anyone want this? It seems to be the ultimate “careful what you wish for.”

I agree but expect the timeline to happen twice as fast.
