Exclusive: Showrunner Industries is now working with the AI startup ScriptGen on a collaboration involving the former’s script development platform WritersRoom Pro.
The deal will entail using ScriptGen’s machine learning to develop AI productivity tools within WritersRoom Pro that “will span the entire production chain from pre-production through post,” according to both companies. It was finalized last month during the AI on the Lot conference in Los Angeles.
“I think writing is at an interesting inflection point,” Jeffrey Alan Schechter, President of Showrunner Industries Inc, said in a statement “Everyone knows that some aspect of machine learning will find a way into the writers’ room, and we’re excited to help guide that process in a way that enables writers without replacing them.”
Schechter says that the ability to generate story ideas from scratch will not be one of the AI tools incorporated into WritersRoom Pro.
