Movie format:
Telling not showing ( so rather not): Vlog, YouTube-style videos, Chats or Online forums
Show not tell (better): split storyline/split screen, Device POV/ POV of the AI
Framework conditions:
- The AI has to be invisible/”in the screen”/the eyes of the viewer (not showing some new futuristic device or an old thing like Alexa -> claiming that there is some new technology but not showing/predicting how it looks like)
- The POV can be from the phone or Laptop but also other “smart AI-augmented devices”: fridge, car interface, smart lamps, door locks, Airpods
Scenario structure possibilities:
- A look into AI training data centers -> dialogue with “test person” – stroyline – interaction fails somehow – on screen: “FAIL – ERROR – TRY AGAIN/NEXT TEST SUBJECT”
Working like a speed dating process: some interactions work well/have good outcomes, some fail - Same scenario but the interactions start off good, and working well but get worse with time ending with people just flipping out/chaos and “FAIL ERROR”s all the time and switching clips faster and faster
-> Disaster crescendo - Pro-AI commercial: begin with a pro-maieutic “this-is-so-great” advertisement clip, then there is supposed to be a “show of implementation in real life” -> AI-POV-dialogue scenes – interaction comes close to fail – scene is cut off shortly before the obvious fail (seeming like bad cutting but making the viewer understand what conflict was about to come up)
Groups (characters interacting with the Maieutic AI that could create a good storyline):
- Hippies that revert to also only talking in questions
- strongly religious people that cannot stand the AI questioning their belief/god
- Children: Why? why? why?
- Seniors: not affine with any kind of technology
- Single-parents
- People falling into an existential crisis (maybe even suicidal)
- Rebels
- impatient/unwilling people that just want answers
- Positive responders: super efficient, super creative
