Can ChatGPT Write A Black Mirror Episode?

Black Mirror is an anthology series that explores the dark and often dystopian aspects of modern society and technology. A few months ago, the show's creator Charlie Brooker attempted to use ChatGPT to write an episode. The verdict? Not great, with Brooker saying the script "reads plausibly, but on second glance, is sh**."

As someone who uses AI to write copious amounts of high level sales copy (100k+ words per month), Stefan Georgi was skeptical of this claim. And with the current Hollywood strike leaving most production companies devoid of screenwriters, he figured it was a good time to revisit this question.

In a behind the scenes 30 minute video, Stefan puts his AI enhanced writing skills to the test and creates his own episode of Black Mirror.

Watch as he uses AI tools like ChatbotUI to uncover the show's most captivating themes and characters...AgentGPT to generate story ideas...Claude 2 to build an outline, analyze past scripts, and write a new one...

Robot Reggae? Meta Releases AI Music Generator That Creates Generic-Sounding Compositions Based on Text Prompts

Meta has released AudioCraft, a new set of AI tools to generate what the tech giant claims is “high-quality, realistic audio and music from text” — for example, producing a music sequence based on the text string “electronic Jamaican reggae DJ set.”

“Imagine a professional musician being able to explore new compositions without having to play a single note on an instrument,” Meta says in a blog post about AudioCraft. “Or a small business owner adding a soundtrack to their latest video ad on Instagram with ease.”

More AI Love From Meta

Meta made further news this week with the launch AI-powered “personas” in its services — which include Facebook and Instagram — as soon as next month. Their goal is to give users a new way to search, get recommendations, and otherwise engage with its products.

The chatbots could come with distinct personalities, including one that offers travel recommendations “in the style of a surfer” and another that speaks like Abraham Lincoln.

The imminent launch could help Meta compete on two fronts. On the one hand, built-in chatbots could be a way to boost engagement with services like Facebook and Instagram in the face of competition from the likes of TikTok. On the other, the chatbots could serve as a display of Meta’s AI capabilities as it competes with Microsoft-backed OpenAI and Google’s Bard.

The side hustle takes a total of 10 to 20 hours per week and makes her an average of $670 per month, according to documents cited and reviewed by CNBC.
