AI will easily be able to write equal or better scripts than 90% of movies made today. It probably already can.

Also for movies, it seems like they way they are produced is going to change dramatically. All or mostly all done on a computer.

But overall I think it is going to be a huge impact on society. I’m not sure of all the ways. But some obvious ones are anything involving written work. For example, legal briefs. I’m guessing what would have been 30 hours of billable time by 2 lawyers (a senior and a junior one) to do standard-ish law and motion can probably be done by 1 in a few hours. AI, especially in conjunction with a specially developed program, can probably get it 90% of the way there with a push of a button.

So a huge thing is how it’s going to impact employment and the workforce. Seems like it’s going to eliminate a lot of jobs/man hours, and fairly soon.

AI is mostly just copying what humans are doing, so AI is not likely to be much if any better, other than being able to turn out new versions of the same old thing at a quicker pace than a human.
