I thought the dialog was amazing? It's generating conversations and a script for a TV show, are you expecting it to be as good as the original? It's crazy that they can carry out a conversation from start to end about a specific topic.

I wonder how much of a copyright violation this must be. I mean, they obviously fed it a lot of Seinfeld scripts for it to understand the characters and humor. I know HN likes to say "fair use" but I wonder how Hollywood's lawyers feel about that

I'm curious as to why the dialogue is so bad. What AI is this using? When I ask ChatGPT to write a scene, the results are usually somewhat funny: INT. JERRY'S CAR - DAY Jerry and George are driving down the road, with Jerry behind the wheel. Jerry: (gazing at the cup holder) This car is such a piece of junk, it doesn't even have a proper cup holder. George: What are you talking about? It has a cup holder right there!…

Yes, but will ChatGPT give you another scene and will it be very different?

The description says it's GPT3

I find that hard to believe especially when chatGPT is spitting out straight, coherent gems. None of the stuff on that stream is coherent.

Fanfilms are actually a fair use case I learned recently (went down a rabbit hole after discovering the wide world of Friday the 13th fan made sequels)

Same! With a good prompt it can produce something quite uncanny.

Maybe because mainstream comedy shows all follow canned patterns with lame and unoriginal jokes. To the point that even a machine can write a script that sounds very similar. Stuff like Friends or Big Bang Theory would probably work very well too.

Married.. with children would be a great candidate.

This is the question I have about feeding scripts to AI. If I watched a ton of Seinfeld and came up with my own idea about a script, is that a copyright violation? Whats the difference between that and an AI bot learning it? I don't think Hollywood or anyone can reasonably expect people to consume some sort of media (whether its a book, tv show, music) and not come up with their own interpretations and ideas around i…

Maybe the biggest beneficiary of AI will be lawyers.

I’m just here to say woohoo, front page of HN bucket list item checked off!

Could you explain how this is done?

It's super simple, hacker news as a 'submit' link on the homepage, so you can just click that, fill in the details of your project, and hit sumbit.

GPT-3 is much inferior to ChatGPT, indeed.

I have to confess I don’t really understand the appeal here. It’s not funny nor particularly entertaining (to me of course). Obviously reading the comments I’m in the minority here.

Think what this tech will be like in another 10 years.
