David Hasselhoff Is A Hoffbot In An AI-Written Script Titled ‘It’s No Game’

"Baywatch" star David Hasselhoff has agreed on a role that is making trends at present. He plays as the Hoffbot in the science-fiction short film directed by Oscar Sharp. The film's script was written by Benjamin an AI created by Ross Goodwin.

Hasselhoff's dialogue in "It's No Game" was written by the writer of the acclaimed short film "Sunspring." Other algorithms were used in the film including the one that formed the moves of the dance sequence as per CNet. The Hoffbot's lines were taken from his own films, "Knight Rider" and "Baywatch."

The film was created by intelligent humans. Director Oscar Sharp worked with data scientist Ross Goodwin in a follow-up to Benjamin first YouTube "Sunspring." The films were intended to compete for the 48 Hour Film Challenge at the Sci-Fi London Film Festival.

The story goes with a Hollywood producer telling screenwriters who are currently on a strike. She told them that their action does not matter as AIs can now do their jobs. The producer added that in the future humans will become useless.

He revealed that despite the proliferation of scriptwriting AIs, Goodwin is not at all insecure, He said, "Writing in multiple voices is challenging for any writer, and it just seemed so useful to be able to summon various voices on demand."

Engadget reported how Goodwin and Sharp created Benjamin. The pair took a neutral network then fed it a lot of science fiction films and plots from a writing contest. Then the trial script for their first sci-fi film was released last year. "Sunspring" was fused into Benjamin's second project "It's No Game."

The film is a timely endeavor to inform about the possibility of AI taking over human activities. It can also convey the future of artificial intelligence and the extent of its usability.
