He said: “It might be a good thing in that it will stop us from being mediocre. There is a lot of mediocrity out there sometimes. Things that pass for entertainment are not quite as good as they should be.

“I think the writing process, it is a process, and when you write a first draft you write something that you know is going to improve and you will improve,” said the 53-year-old. “If we get AI to write those first drafts the whole time people are only ever going to be doctoring scripts or giving notes.
“There’s going to be no sort of genesis in them, no kind of heart. I read a funny thing that says AI hasn’t had any childhood trauma so it’s never going to make good art. But it’s true.”
