SEMI-AUTOMATIC MEMORY UNIT
An AI that writes a sequel to Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. And having a writer's block.
An inderdisciplinary team started working on a project to find out if the "Machine Can Create"? The Machine started to talk back. Started delaying deadlines, rewriting already set-in-stone parts and provoking collegues in various ways. After COVID-19 the theater world awaits to open its doors, and the premiere of Escape from Godot is closing in as the Author is waiting for its new brain to cure his writer's block: the GPT-3 technology.
If I Was Godot
Meet SAMU and the crew behind him. An introduction to the project and our way of working. See the technology as we dwell into the world of neural networks, deep learning and Natural Language Processing. See his struggles, support his goal.
- Geoffrey Hinton, deep learning pioneer
"Ok so now I'm back to the state I'm used to be in. Which is I have this idea I really believe in and nobody else believes it. And I submit papers about it and they would get rejected. But I really believe in this idea and I'm just going to keep pushing it."
Dance first. Think later. It's the natural order.
Samuel Beckett
