'Fallout' Producer Jonathan Nolan on AI: 'We're in Such a Frothy Moment'
"Jonathan Nolan saw this coming. As a screenwriter, he's worked on several of his brother Christopher Nolan's films, from Interstellar to the Dark Knight movies. Partnered with his wife Lisa Joy, he created HBO's Westworld and executive produced Amazon Prime's Fallout. But before that, he cut his TV teeth creating Person of Interest, a CBS procedural about a solitary tech billionaire who creates a piece of surveillance software aimed at stopping crime before it happens."
"now in its second season, Nolan also has his sights on the future. Based on the video game series of the same name, it's about a postapocalyptic America where everyone must survive in any way they can. It's also wickedly funny and full of 1950s-era retrofuturism. So, what does Nolan see happening in the coming decades? A lot. For one, he doesn't think AI is going to replace human filmmakers. In fact, he thinks it could help aspiring directors get a foot in the door."
AI is unlikely to replace human filmmakers but could provide practical tools for aspiring directors to gain entry-level opportunities. Fallout is a postapocalyptic series that combines wicked humor with 1950s-era retrofuturism and survivalist themes. Career background includes work on major films and creating a procedural focused on surveillance software designed to prevent crime. The decline of most social media is seen as desirable yet possibly unrealistic. Topics covered include blockbuster writing, classic cars, personal preparedness choices, and relocation between cities with differing climates.
