Higgsfield is launching AI-generated TV series where viewers vote on plot directions and the AI creates new episodes based on those choices.

It's interactive storytelling taken to the extreme. Instead of just picking from pre-written options, the AI generates entirely new scenes, dialogue, and animation based on what the audience wants to see happen.

This could completely change how we think about entertainment.

"1. All user interaction will be driven by artificial intelligence.

As AI technologies continue to develop, they will drive personalised and contextualised user interactions across news and media platforms. From content recommendations to real-time language translation and automated story generation, AI will become central to shaping the user experience. This transformation will not only enhance audience interest but also enable platforms to better understand audience preferences and adapt their content strategies accordingly.

In a world where competition for audience attention is spread among an increasing number of players, AI-driven interaction will allow for hyper-personalised content delivery, improved user retention, and optimised marketing strategies, ensuring relevance and long-term viability.

This presents a challenge for the BBC. Over many decades, we have built and maintained trust with audiences worldwide through our impartial journalism. Business models are changing and pushing industries to transform. As this AI ecosystem evolves, we will need to define an approach that ensures we can maintain and build on the trust we have in this new environment."

While I’m here (my academic account)…

Part of my research practice has to do with artistic endeavours. (My PhD research was in ethnomusicology and I still have a variety of projects related to creative pursuits.)

Which means that this account also relates to arts and the “cultural sector”. So don’t be surprised if some posts and replies cover technicalities of #musicking software or #InteractiveMedia.

Reading notes of students finding it difficult to get #engagement on #socialmedia. The Problem: they themselves are not engaging others in meaningful ways (beyond liking and resharing posts). It is called #social media for a reason - engage others in actual conversations, around their interests, as well as your own. Search and find others discussing topics of interest to you and interact with them on their content.
