DESCRIPTION: Wow. \n\n What a week it was last week for Hollywood — and w
 hat a time to be in the entertainment business. \n\n I heard someone say t
 he other day that AI was the future of writing and the WGA was in for a sh
 ock as soon as The Algorithm learned how to write a spot-on three act rom-
 com or Bourne-like thriller that just needed a bit of polish from a Produc
 tion Assistant. \n\n Could this be? Is this the moment that we’ll look b
 ack on and wonder — wow\, that’s when FinalDraft decided to come out w
 ith the AI edition so that anyone could summon forth a decent (enough) scr
 eenplay to get the elusive green light? \n\n Or will human creativity\, in
 genuity\, production skill and nuance hold a place? \n\n Or _ what's in be
 tween? What upstart streaming network is going to find a way to allow a fe
 w parameters to summon forth a 112 minute film in as long as it takes Chat
 GPT to turn a Bible passage into the lyrics of a cowboy ballad? \n\n What 
 are some futures of Hollywood?? \n\n What do you imagine? Have you wandere
 d around the backlot or head office of a future Paramount or Universal or 
 A24 in your Imagination? What did you see? What new kind of production tec
 hniques were being used? What was going on in the writer's room? Who or wh
 at was 'talent'? \n\n Curious? \n\n Then Join us on Wed May 17th at 10AM P
 DT (UTC-7) and 3PM PDT (UTC-7) to travel to some futures of Hollywood and 
 see what's happened to the world of visual storytelling. \n\n Tickets go q
 uick for General Seminar\, so don't dilly-dally! \n
