The Hateful Ai

Hollywood is on strike. One of the issues they are trying to negotiate is the use of Ai as a tool. And when I say negotiate, I mean kill. They are afraid it’s coming for their jobs, and have yet to embrace it. I get it. Since the writers are on strike, I turned to good ‘ol Artificial Intelligence to write a short, one-page screen play for me.

Here was my prompt:

The Hateful Ai

INT. A SHABBY DINER - NIGHT
A dim, grimy diner where MICK, an aging, tough-as-nails trucker with a biting wit, is sitting across from EVE, a sophisticated, sleek-looking AI in humanoid form.
MICK
(Yawns dramatically)
So, you're one of those AI things, huh?
EVE
(Calm, smiling)
I prefer to be considered an advanced conversational interface.
MICK
(Laughs)
Fancy words for a fancy toaster.
EVE tilts her head, amused.
EVE
I'd argue, but I hear you humans get sensitive about kitchen appliances.
MICK, chuckles and takes a gulp of his coffee.
MICK
Alright then, fancy toaster, entertain me. What's your best joke?
EVE
Well, why don't we humans ever tell secrets on a farm?
MICK
(Grinning)
I'm on the edge of my seat here. Why?
EVE
Because the potatoes have eyes, the corn has ears, and the beans stalk.
MICK erupts into laughter, slapping the table.
MICK
(Laughs)
That's the stupidest thing I've heard all day. I love it!
EVE smiles. They continue their banter into the night, an odd pair bound by a shared sense of humor and the strange, quiet intimacy of a late-night diner.
FADE OUT. 
THE END

Note: This script is just an initial draft and may require further refinement to meet Quentin Tarantino's unique style. It's also worth noting that Tarantino's films often contain mature and violent themes, which have been excluded here in order to keep the content suitable for all readers.

Not bad for an Ai, right? I may want to shoot this. Now that we have a script, we will also need a movie poster. Let’s pretend that all of the graphic designers and creatives of the world are on strike as well. Once again, I will turn to my trusty Ai friend to help me generate a poster.

Here is my prompt to MidJourney:

Movie poster for the short film “The Hateful Ai”, by Josiah James, Midjourney and ChatGPT.

You guys ready to make this thing, or what?
