I am not a fan “generative” so-called AI for creating content and have not exactly hidden that.<\/p>\n
But there are obviously uses for some of the technology – especially the non-generative kind.<\/p>\n
For example:<\/p>\n
One way I’ll likely be using it in the future is to turn my novels into animated films should the tech get advanced enough for what I want to do. It’s not yet, despite what the AI geek chorus who thinks insists.<\/p>\n
But I will likely do something like this with my own fiction:<\/p>\n
1. Take the screenplay I wrote for my first novel (Zombie Cop), based on my own IP, that came out of my own brain<\/p>\n
2. Adapt it to a graphic novel, which will also basically serve as a storyboard<\/p>\n
3. Pay a specific artist I hired for a few comicbook-style ads in the past, who I want to do this, and who uses his actual brain, too, and has legitimate skill, and does not prompt out\/parasite off of images created by other, superior artists<\/p>\n
4. Use some emerging so-called AI tools to help turn that graphic novel into an animated movie, using my own script from my own brain, the artwork I paid for that came from the artist’s brain, and not burgling content from others’ brains<\/p>\n
5. Hire some people I know in the industry to help me with the logistics, as well as hire Method acting performers to perform the voices, and give my characters more depth and nuance<\/p>\n
6. Produce it, show it, sell it if there\u2019s a market… or else leave it for Willis to do if the above can\u2019t be done by me due to technological or other reasons, as I ain\u2019t getting any younger, and that evil to-do list I have ain\u2019t getting any shorter<\/p>\n
And so it shalt be.<\/p>\n
Maybe..<\/p>\n
