In this episode I’m joined by Liz, a comedy writer and content strategist (NY Times, HuffPost). We discuss the limitations of AI with respect to writing and beyond. We cover the Hollywood strikes, whether AI can write a whole script (spoiler: it can't), and the coming skill gap when few junior writers are around to replace the senior ones "managing" AI. Liz shares her own experiments using ChatGPT for creative ideation (including a Rick & Morty spec) and why it produces ideas that may sound ok at first glance, but fall apart when you try to build something truly original and, well... funny. We also get into AI-as-editor, hallucinated feedback, and why the already-upon-us flood of slop may make real craft and voice even more valuable.
