If you ever wanted to see what theater created completely through AI would be like, this is your chance. Artificial Flavors is an examination of the effects of the usage of AI like you've never seen before. As part of the experience, each night (or afternoon), a brand-new musical wholly created by ChatBot is performed. Each performance is completely unique and original as a completely new show is generated every time.
The whole thing is quite an engaging and appealingly interactive experience as audience suggestions are incorporated into the instructions given to the ChatBot for creating the musical. The audience also gets to vote on the topic of the musical. The topic chosen may be inappropriate for younger audiences, however, so we would not recommend this show for young children.
The show is quite exciting and extremely entertaining. It is also quite scary and horrifying to think that an entire show could be created through artificial intelligence with only minimal participation from a real human being. However, thankfully at least so far the quality (or lack thereof) of the shows generated will make you appreciate the actual humans who create theater.
And that's our view. For more about Artificial Flavors or to purchase tickets, visit www.59e59.org/shows/show-detail/artificial-flavors
