Renowned filmmaker Shekhar Kapur has shared a remarkable tale about his long-time house help, Nilesh, who, despite being an ’11th fail,’ managed to draft a script for a Mr. India sequel in under an hour, with the assistance of artificial intelligence.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Shekhar posted a picture of Nilesh, describing him as someone who has been part of his household for 18 years, starting as a cook and house boy and evolving into a close friend. Despite Nilesh’s reluctance to pursue further education, Shekhar unveiled a surprising turn of events involving an AI tool.
In the post, Shekhar detailed how Nilesh stumbled upon Google Gemini at 6 a.m., sparking an unexpected burst of creativity. By 7 a.m., Nilesh had already begun crafting a storyline for Mr. India 2, a sequel to the iconic Bollywood film. By 8 a.m., he approached Shekhar, asking if he could read the script. The filmmaker expressed his astonishment, declaring that a new era of AI-driven creativity had dawned.
While Shekhar and some are intrigued by the capabilities of AI tools in generating creative content, it’s worth noting that the use of artificial intelligence in the creative process has been met with resistance in some quarters. Hollywood script writers and actors, for instance, engaged in a prolonged battle against studios last year to curb the dependance on artificial intelligence in creative endeavours.
