Creativity vs. Copycats: The AI Debate Heats Up

Gilligan’s bold stance shines a light on a growing debate in Hollywood and beyond. Is AI really a tool for innovation, or is it just a clever way to recycle and repackage existing ideas? For creators like Gilligan, originality matters more than convenience. As AI-generated scripts and films become more common, expect this showdown between human creativity and machine learning to get even spicier.

We can’t help but wonder: If AI ever tried to write Breaking Bad, would it end up with “Cooking Good”? Sometimes, the real magic is in the messy, unpredictable genius of the human mind.
