Hollywood strikes are gonna be pretty pointless in the future
Did you watch the video they made? It’s pretty terrible.
I watched it and it’s intriguing. The characters have similar roles to the real show and speak in similar ways. The problem is that the “writer” has no point of view and therefore the satire was completely missing.
They used the wrong voices a lot of the time. I think the AI picked up on the voice actor doing multiple roles and slapped the same characters voice on each character.
As a tech showcase it was pretty cool to see, but the performances were very bland. Characters had the same tone of voice, but were missing the mannerisms and subtleties of the actual voice actors…
For a proof of concept though (which it is) it’s really not that bad! Imagine where this is in a couple of years.
Meeeeeh, we’ll see how well bland regurgitated writing catches on as corporate shills inevitably try to push out creative talent over the years…
Even if this was perfect, if they tried to push out Matt and Trey in favor of AI, Matt and Trey could just start their own spin-off project and probably bring most of the fanbase with them.
Actually, maybe this would be awesome. I’d love to see people abandon corporate TV in favor of small independent projects spearheaded by the former writers of corporate programs.
Seems to have worked out ok for the music industry.
