[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AI being able to generate a whole movie script, or even a whole TV show script, is many years away. They’d probably start with something like children’s television first before going into anything more complicated. A lot of the big kids TV shows come from outside the US anyway. Paw Patrol is Canadian, PJ Masks is UK/French, a bunch of the other shows are split productions between Canada and the US, Bluey comes from Australia. The random kids stuff on YouTube is almost all from overseas and dubbed. Then there’s the matter if you do get AI to generate a decent script, [b]someone still has to film it, actors or voice actors still have to act[/b], edits need to be made. AI can barely generate decent static images of hands these days, it’s not going to generate a whole 22 minute long animated show. Any studios putting their faith in AI at this point are deceiving themselves. [/quote]

Re: the bold: Please note that one thing being talked about regarding AI is the desire of some studios to take actors' voices and sample them, then turn those samples into voiceover, dubbed and animation voice acting using AI. Forever. They want to have actors sign away rights to their own voices, in perpetuity, and be paid only once for the use of their voices forever. This is the same concept as the more widely publicized aim of studios to capture actors' physical likenesses and then use those as background players (a.k.a. extras) forever, for a one-time payment. So it's not too far off the mark to think that if, for instance, someone comes up with an AI-generated animated show, the voice "actors" we would hear could be merely AI voices that sound like some real actor whose voice has been cloned and made to say anything at all, in any show or movie at all.[/quote]

Yeah, they already use vocaloids for generating those “AI Covers” on TikTok, so I could see that happening well before AI generates a whole decent script. AI now is basically just predictive text on a larger scale. But that’s why the actors are striking … which makes a certain amount of sense to me right now with the state of AI. [/quote]
