i hear ya but at the same time are we to believe AI can't write a better season than True Detective season 4?
And consider the fact that 10 years ago nobody would have voluntarily gotten into a self driving car.

re: Do you think we will ever see another Writers Guild strike now that AI is an option?

I don't think its a stretch at all to say AI will be not only used for writing soon, it'll actually be good at it.
It's already used for tech writing, but you hit on the key IMO. No, I don't think "Computer, write me a script for a movie" will produce a blockbuster script any time soon, but "make this conversation shorter but include this reveal" is already a reality. It's a tool that can be used with great effectiveness by knowledgeable people.
And a good writer with a good AI tool needs a lot fewer writers to help them create and improve a script, that's just a fact. It will impact that industry, it's just a question of magnitude.

I mean convincing people with clear or showing likely indicators of mental illness is a much different thing than making a movie meant to connect with a sizable audience and appeal to normal human feelings and emotion.
I'm far from an expert but I don't think everybody who's been duped by AI is abnormal.
And again, there would be a human creator tweaking and having AI improve the product. They could just do it much faster and without paying a room full of writers.

An AI can structure a script, describe a world, but can't do humans.
Except be convincing enough that incels in their basement commit suicide or fall in love with the fake human that AI created.
It wouldn't surprise me a bit if AI, guided by a single creator, couldn't produce something at least on the level of Rings of Power, if not now in a pretty short time. It also wouldn't surprise me if there's some creative wall it could hit, but so far the people I know who use it (I don't, I'm retired) generally warn against underestimating it, especially for tasks that just involve 1s and 0s.

Oh, frick off. This was a planned, coordinated response that dovetails with what we've seen out of UK's "government" for years.

There are plot holes between the original trilogy and the rest of the movies that a star destroyer would fit through. He not only didn't nitpick the details, he frequently ignored them.

From the post: "The whole point of the show is defying the path that is set before you..."
The whole point of the show is JOHN defying the path that is set before him. He can't be working for The Man and The System because he's a Strong Black Man who says "aks" (sometimes), so screw the all-powerful Guardians. This is BlackpantherLantern and he does what he wants without white people telling him what to do. He has an un-sanctioned ring, his own charging lantern, his own oath and his own lantern color.
I have no idea how that fits with the lore, but I'm pretty sure a legit GL wouldn't be scared (I thought that was a no-no) of a ringless John Stewart like bowlcut was so I'm not sure the lore matters much.

His prequels gave the jedi the ability to block lasers and fight off dozens of stormtroopers until Order 66 when they just got shot in the back and folded like lawn chairs.
Continuity is difficult when you're making up the story as you go along. What he did with the storm troopers was just as bad.

They had one remotely sympathetic character and they put a bullet through his head in E1. The rest ranged from annoying to forgettable, and it wouldn't have changed the finale even a little bit if the sheriff offed herself out of guilt.
