AI apps propose 'The White Lotus' Season 4 storyline

AI technology is quickly advancing, with several top apps like ChatGPT and Claude gaining enormous popularity. As AI tools see growth in different sectors, there is ongoing discussion about their potential impact on the entertainment industry, particularly in writing scripts for television shows. Recently, a creative experiment asked five leading AI applications to draft a treatment for the popular HBO series "The White Lotus." The next season is expected to feature actors Patrick Schwarzenegger and Jack Schlossberg. Their characters confront family drama and scandals in settings like Vienna and Italy's Amalfi Coast. The AI-generated ideas proposed settings filled with opulence and dark comedy, showcasing the tension between wealthy guests and complex family histories. Each format is meant to highlight the struggles of elite social classes dealing with secrets and power. For instance, one version set in Vienna involves a crash course for an American political dynasty facing old-world banking families, leading to a deadly week of indulgence and conflicts. Another treatment features a luxurious Italian resort where guests confront the consequences of hypocritical sustainability claims, revealing a thrilling mystery. As these AI tools experiment with storytelling, the question arises: will Hollywood eventually feel threatened by AI-generated content? The current consensus remains that AI serves as a powerful tool but still lacks the depth and nuance of human creativity.
