Screenwriter Paul Schrader recently expressed his approval of artificial intelligence in screenwriting, noting its superior efficiency and creativity. He compared this moment to Garry Kasparov's defeat by the AI chess program Deep Blue. Schrader shared his experiences with ChatGPT, which provided him with constructive feedback on his scripts and generated original film ideas. His enthusiasm has sparked a debate among fellow writers, some expressing skepticism about AI's emotional depth and creativity, while others are intrigued by its potential to streamline the writing process.
"I've just come to realize AI is smarter than I am. Has better ideas, has more efficient ways to execute them."
"This is an existential moment, akin to what Kasparov felt in 1997 when he realized Deep Blue was going to beat him at chess."
"Why should writers sit around for months searching for a good idea when AI can provide one in seconds?"
"It's not that great, Paul. I get the first impression, I did the same thing. But read a few paragraphs and you'll see- it is an empty vessel."
