WHEN YOU THINK of Amadeus, Peter Shaffer’s perfectly wonderful play of 1979 that cast mischievous light into the mysterious nooks and untold crannies of the life of 18th century Vienna composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the first thing that comes to…

don't get me wrong, while I love film actors, there really are some underappreciated TV actors that are out there just knocking it out of the park every single time that I just absolutely LOVE:

I couldn't post any more images for some reason but the list continues in the tags.

Stephen interviews a bunch of children to make an absolutely hilarious horror movie trailer, and it's... everything, honestly.

(Obviously posting this for a reason given my blog theme, but this is also too good to not share.)

Jonathan appeared in a skit on Thursday's The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. A few stills are below.

Stephen asked a bunch of brilliant kids to help him write a spooky Halloween movie, and boy did they deliver! Watch as they collaborate on the movie script, and then enjoy the trailer for "Inside Goodbye: HELL-O!" starring Jonathan Groff, Natalia Dyer, John Oliver, Tim Meadows, Paul Walter Hauser, Britt Lower, Andi Matichak, Rhea Seehorn, and Patrick Wilson, featuring original music by Imagine Dragons. To hear more of the spooky version of their song, "Believer," head to the band's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@imaginedragons

AI Makes Writing Easier, But Stories Sound Alike

Books and movies of the future could all start to feel the same if creative industries embrace artificial intelligence to help write stories, a study published on Friday warned.

The research, which drew on hundreds of volunteers and was published in Science Advances, comes amid rising fears over the impact of widely available AI tools that turn simple text prompts into relatively sophisticated music, art and writing.

“Our goal was to study to what extent and how generative AI might help humans with creativity,” co-author Anil Doshi of the University College London told AFP.

For their experiment, Doshi and co-author Oliver Hauser of the University of Exeter recruited around 300 volunteers as “writers.”

These were people who didn’t write for a living, and their inherent creative ability was assessed by a standard psychology test that asked them to provide 10 drastically different words.

The scientists then split them randomly into three groups to write an eight-sentence story about one of three topics: an adventure on the open seas, an adventure in the jungle, or an adventure on another planet.

Participants were also randomly placed into three groups that received varying levels of AI assistance.

The first group got no help, the second was provided a three-sentence story idea from ChatGPT, and the third could receive up to five AI-generated story ideas to help them get going.

After completing their stories, participants were asked to assess their own work’s creativity through measures including how novel it was, how enjoyable, and how much potential the idea had to be turned into a published book.

An additional 600 external human reviewers also judged the story on the same measures.

The authors found that, on average, AI boosted the quality of an individual writer’s creativity by up to 10 percent, and the story’s enjoyability by 22 percent, helping particularly with elements like structure and plot twists.

These effects were most significant for writers who were judged during the initial task to be the least creative, “so it has this kind of leveling the playing field effect,” said Doshi.

But on the collective level, they found AI-assisted stories looked much more similar to each other than those produced without any AI help, as writers “anchored” themselves too heavily to the suggested ideas.

Hauser said this created a “social dilemma.” On the one hand, “you make it easier for people to get in; lowering barriers is good.” But if the collective novelty of art decreases, “it could be harmful down the line.”

Doshi said the research also showed that, just like introducing pocket calculators to children too early could prevent them from learning how to do basic arithmetic, there was a danger that people could rely too much on AI tools before developing underlying skills in writing, music or more.

People need to start thinking about “where in my workflow can I insert this tool to get the most benefit, while still inserting my own voice into the project or outcome.”
