IBM's Watson AI creates trailer for sci-fi thriller movie "Morgan"

IBM's Watson AI (artificial intelligence) has added yet another skill to its collection. This time it has created the first-ever sci-fi AI-made movie trailer for "Morgan," that was released in theatres on September 2 by 20th Century Fox. Morgan, staring Kate Mara and Paul Giamatti, is a sci-fi thriller about scientists who have developed a synthetic humanoid whose potential has grown dangerously beyond their control. To prepare the machine for the task at hand, the IBM Research system analysed hundreds of horror/thriller movie trailers. In order to get an idea of the dynamics of a trailer, the computer then performed a series of visual, sound and composition studies.
