    I had AI write me a script for a pilot episode now I really want to see it.

    Surf Dracula - Pilot Episode: “The Tide of Terror”## INT. HAWAIIAN BEACHSIDE BUNGALOW - NIGHT*The camera pans over a collection of surfboards, each more colorful than the last. A full moon casts a silver glow through the open window. We see a figure, DRACULA (50s, charming, with a mysterious aura), dressed in an unbuttoned Hawaiian shirt and board shorts, looking out at the ocean.DRACULA(contemplative)*The night is young, and the waves call to me. But duty beckons…

    A knock at the door. Dracula turns, his eyes flashing red for a split second.## EXT. HAWAIIAN BEACH - NIGHT*Dracula opens the door to find DETECTIVE LEI (30s, sharp, no-nonsense) holding a flashlight and a notepad.DETECTIVE LEIDracula, we need your… unique skills. There’s been another incident. DRACULA(smirking)Lead the way, Detective. They walk down to the beach where a crowd has gathered around something in the sand.## EXT. HAWAIIAN BEACH - CRIME SCENE - NIGHTDracula kneels by the body of a local surfer, his board snapped in two. The crowd murmurs with fear and curiosity.DRACULA(examining the body)*No water in the lungs, no signs of a struggle… This was no ordinary drowning. *Detective Lei looks on, skeptical but intrigued.DETECTIVE LEIWhat are you suggesting? DRACULA(standing, addressing the crowd)This was the work of something unnatural. And I intend to find out what. The crowd gasps. Dracula’s eyes meet Lei’s, a silent promise of collaboration and mystery.## INT. DRACULA’S BUNGALOW - NIGHTDracula sits at a desk covered in ancient texts and modern forensics equipment. He’s deep in thought when his trusty sidekick, FRANKIE (20s, surfer dude with a secret intelligence), bursts in.FRANKIEDude, the whole beach is talking about the “Curse of the Tidal Fiend”! DRACULA(dryly)Superstitions often have a kernel of truth, Frankie. Help me look into the local legends. They dive into research, the camera focusing on a particular legend: “The Tidal Fiend, a creature of the deep, comes with the high tide to claim the souls of the unwary.”## EXT. HAWAIIAN BEACH - NIGHTDracula and Frankie set a trap for the Tidal Fiend, using a special surfboard as bait. The moon is high, the tide comes in, and a shadowy figure approaches from the water…DRACULA(whispering)*Get ready, Frankie. The hunt is on. *The screen fades to black as the sound of the waves crescendos.*VOICEOVERNext time on Surf Dracula, the mystery deepens, and the danger grows. Will our heroes catch the Tidal Fiend, or will they become its next victims? Tune in to find out!

    The 80s synth-pop theme song plays as the credits roll. FADE OUT.

      TBH I’m kinda over seeing AI generated content in discussions like this. It used to be novel and quite impressive, but now that I’ve seen this type of thing so many times and the reality of the negative impacts of LLMs has set in, it just doesn’t hit for me at all. It’s fun to speculate about an LLM writing TV scripts, but my worry is that this will become an actual thing in the near future: soulless generated “content” companies can sell us without having to pay hardworking and talented writers, and that shit just bums me out.

      Anyway, nothing against you, and I don’t fault you for posting it, but that’s my thoughts. Maybe I’m in the minority though, who knows?
