Coming to the Multiplex: Movies Written by Machines

If you're looking for a good movie, I suggest that you try "It's No Game." If you've never heard of it, that's okay. The film, just released this week, is a bit less than eight minutes long. It tells the story of a pair of Hollywood writers who learn that they are going to be replaced by an artificially intelligent algorithm that generates screenplays. By now I'm sure you've guessed the kicker: "It's No Game" was itself written by an artificially intelligent algorithm that generates screenplays.
