Obviously, no one would say the printing press was a bad invention.

No, and actually, that's a good example of a extremely, in a way, very positively disruptive technology that probably obviously clearly did a lot more harm than good. You can bet somebody put on a pair of eyeglasses and went, right, I don't like that guy over there. Oh, man, I didn't realize how much I didn't like. Yeah, it ended a lot of marriages. I don't like my neighbor. Yeah, so...

But I guess with AI, you can see that the potential is incredible. The potential for it as a tool is incredible. The obvious worry I think that we all have is, is that guy going to take my job? Is that guy going to take my job? And then is that guy going to... run things from that. Is that guy going to be my boss? Not just take my job, but going to be my boss.

And how, how do we manage that if that's the case? And I don't know, I don't, I think like any writer, you, you look at, uh, like something like chat GPT and you are, it's worrisome. It's, it's, it's a, it's a, it's a worry. And you worry about, um, If we end up replacing... I'm talking creatively.

If you end up replacing... If any creative work is one human attempting to communicate with other humans, if you take the human out of one end of that pipe, I don't know what... You've got a different... I think you've got a different form. You've got a different thing that I don't know what that is.

I think if you start replacing writers in your, well, weirdly, we don't actually have a writing room on Black Mirror. We sometimes have written- Yeah, what do you do?

Well, no, it's just I'm walking around. Occasionally, so I've collaborated with, right, so there's two of the episodes this season are co-written, but we don't have like a formal writing room where people are sort of pitching ideas and stuff. Usually what's happening is I'm wandering around thinking – I've got nuggets of idea and then they'll sort of coalesce at some point.

If that makes it like, or suddenly I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll think, Oh, I know I want to do a story about this and I want to do a story with, and I, and here's a cool scene. I've got this, or here's a moment I want to do, but I don't, I don't know what the story is. And then I'll see something else or I'll think of something. And that will pause me to knit those ideas together.
