AI Startup Quilty Reveals Script Prediction Tool with Mixed Results

The AI startup Quilty recently unveiled a script prediction tool, claiming it can accurately forecast a film’s success solely based on the written content. Despite its promise of utilizing vast amounts of data to make informed predictions, Quilty’s initial tests yielded conflicting results. The platform mistakenly predicted that the script for Christy, a low-budget drama released earlier this year, would perform better at the box office than it actually did, while accurately predicting that the highly acclaimed Oscar-winning film Sinners would be a commercial success. Quilty’s founders believe their tool has the potential to “democratize” the film industry by providing emerging creatives with access to cutting-edge technology. By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence, they aim to level the playing field and give new voices a platform to showcase their work.
