It'll be a good while before an AI generates an Oscar-winning script or a whole movie but most movies and TV shows are very formulaic. Would it really be that surprising if AIs were generating the entertainment equivalent of Hannah Montana in a few years? Or the latest Hallmark Christmas special (LOL)?
My guess is five years: That's how long it'll be before we start getting a flood of half-decent AI-generated shows/movies. Where the script is good but the animation/video are "a little off".
I mean, come on: There's so many successful TV shows and movies that are total shit! You think AI can't do better with just the tiniest bit of evolutionary improvements (and better hardware)?
Edit: I expect AI videos to be a revolution! Where we finally break free from the Hollywood and "big mega" cookie cutter stories. It'll give creative people the power to make the movies they want without heavy-handed censorship and executives that require everything dumbed down for the lowest common viewer.
