Speculation about what AI in reality might do toscript-writing.I can't believe this couldn't happen, if someday artificial intelligence can tellplausible stories. Speculation about this goes at least as far backas Asimov's story "Galley Slave". But be careful not to think of ChatGPT as artificial intelligence.It does not know anything, and does not understand anything.It might be able to script a surrealist absurd movie, where lackof knowledge and understanding might be no problem. But I hesitateto assume even that. The great works of surrealism may well be lessrandom than meets the eye; that may be what makes them great.
