With the Hollywood writers on strike, I had Microsoft’s Bing browser, now powered by the AI software called ChatGPT, write for me a typical bad Hollywood action plot using cliches. The result was impressive.

Me to Bing: “write for me a short treatment or screenplay for an action film that uses 10 of the most common cliches in Hollywood action films”

Bing’s Response:

“Sure! Here’s an updated treatment for an action film that uses 10 of the most common cliches in Hollywood action films:
