It's not just trash, it just wouldn't make sense.

AI would kill off a character only to forget that the character was dead. There would be no chronology, it would be unwatchable.

They wouldn't have AI produce the whole show like that, it's like feeding it a context to create dialogue within set parameters.

That would be better, but just seems more trouble than it's worth for the quality. People ultimately do want to watch good well written shows. Apart from those who don't!

The Big Bang Theory ran for 12 years...

To be fair to them even though the jokes were poor they did their homework with the physica.

[–] Indicah@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The writing in general was poor. Sure the physics jokes were accurate, but none of the characters were believable as people.

I have a PhD in physics. You would be surprised at the kind of people I know. They are definitely exaggerated caricatures, but a lot of what the characters do does actually remind me of people from my departments.
