I just finished watching the current season of American Horror Story and need to get this off my chest. AHS 13 is the uncanny valley of writing. When something looks almost human, but not quite, our brains instinctively recognize that something is wrong. Even if it’s something that’s not overtly visible, we can tell something is off. We may not be able to pinpoint what it is exactly, but we can FEEL it. This is known as the uncanny valley. AHS 13 is the literary equivalent. This AI-generated Chat GPT script is the same thing. We can tell something is off because something IS off. A human being did not this. Some movies or TV shows are bad in a way that is unmistakably human. (The movie The Room being a good example of this.) You can tell they were written by someone with absolutely no talent, who either knew the right people, opened their legs for the right people, or simply failed upwards into a position they had no business occupying This is not that. This is a computer cobbling together fragments of things that almost resemble plot, that almost resemble character, that almost resemble human dialogue. This is, without exaggeration, the absolute worst thing I have ever watched in my life. I’m genuinely speechless. And I am not being hyperbolic when I say this makes The Room look like a masterclass in screenwriting and competent filmmaking. AI is very useful for some things. Storytelling is not one of them. I actually think EVERYBODY should watch AHS 13 to see the future that is in store if we outsource human creativity to AI. @AHSFX #AHS13
