Filmmaker Tiggy’s journey with AI content creation reveals a quirky and imperfect process that contrasts with the dramatic narratives often surrounding artificial intelligence. Tasked with producing original TV segments, Tiggy encountered numerous AI misfires, such as inaccurate depictions of his character and absurd interpretations of requests, like superimposing a frog’s face. Despite these challenges, he persevered, ultimately crafting an engaging eight-minute episode for his sci-fi universe, Neural Viz, which debuted in 2024. Initially starting with a mockumentary titled Unanswered Oddities, the series explored the whimsical alien perspective on “hooman” civilization. The project expanded into various formats, including documentaries and podcasts, creating a rich tapestry with interconnected stories, characters, and even a unique language, all derived from AI-generated content. This evolving Monoverse showcases the potential of AI in storytelling, offering humor and depth despite the technology’s occasional erratic outcomes.
