Maybe this belongs in the fan creation section, but I wanted people to actually see it so I'm putting it here.
I'm sure most of you have at least heard of this AI that will take whatever you submit and spit out some result. I just started messing with it, mostly seeing what sort of pictures it would come up with, mostly weird SalvadorDali lookin stuff. Today it came to me to submit "create a song in the style of Def Leopard about the Ninja Turtles". The results were hilarious to watch as it wrote what could easily have been the theme song to a cartoon series. I've seen people use Chat GPT to make actual songs you could listen to but I haven't figured out how to do that yet. Anyway, I present to you "Ninja Turtles Rock" (yes it came up with the title too).


Ninja Turtles Rock

Create song in style of Def Leppard about teenage mutant ninja turtles.

(Verse 1)
Living in the sewers, they train with might,
Four brave turtles, ready to fight,
Mutated by ooze, they grew up strong,
Ninja skills, they'll prove everyone wrong.

(Chorus)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, heroes in a half shell,
Fighting for justice, they'll give 'em all hell,
Leo leads with his katana sword,
Mikey parties, nunchucks never bored,
Donnie's a tech whiz with his bo staff,
And Raph's tough attitude, he'll make you laugh.

(Verse 2)
With Splinter as their wise sensei,
They battle evil, night and day,
Taking on Shredder and his Foot Clan,
Turtle Power, part of their plan.

(Chorus)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, heroes in a half shell,
Fighting for justice, they'll give 'em all hell,
Leo leads with his katana sword,
Mikey parties, nunchucks never bored,
Donnie's a tech whiz with his bo staff,
And Raph's tough attitude, he'll make you laugh.

(Bridge)
They love pizza, it's their favorite treat,
Cowabunga, they can't be beat,
Green and mean, they'll save the day,
In New York City, where they play.

(Guitar Solo)

(Chorus)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, heroes in a half shell,
Fighting for justice, they'll give 'em all hell,
Leo leads with his katana sword,
Mikey parties, nunchucks never bored,
Donnie's a tech whiz with his bo staff,
And Raph's tough attitude, he'll make you laugh.

(Outro)
So raise a shell and sing along,
To the tale of heroes, brave and strong,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, they're here to stay,
Def Leppard-style, in rockin' ninja way! Woah! Yeah! Woah! Cowabunga! Woah! Cowabunga! Cowabunga, dude! Yeah! Cowabunga! Woah! Yeah! Cowabunga! Woah! Yeah! Cowabunga! Cowabunga! Cowabunga, dude!

Pretty good, but this line:

gave me a pause.

"Write a short movie scene of the Ninja Turtles defeating Agent Bishop."

Spoiler:

The scene opens with the Ninja Turtles stealthily making their way through the dark corridors of a laboratory, searching for Agent Bishop's secret hideout. They cautiously make their way past high-tech security systems, knowing that one wrong move could trigger an alarm and compromise their mission.

Finally, they arrive at Bishop's lab, where they find the agent hunched over a computer terminal, studying some sort of biological sample. Without hesitation, the turtles spring into action, launching themselves at Bishop with incredible speed and agility.

Bishop, caught off guard by the sudden attack, attempts to fight back with his advanced weapons and technology. But the turtles are too quick for him, using their expert ninja skills to dodge his attacks and strike back with devastating force.

As the fight continues, the turtles work together in perfect harmony, each one using their unique skills to keep Bishop off balance. Leonardo leads the charge with his razor-sharp swords, while Donatello uses his bo staff to disarm Bishop's weapons. Michelangelo dazzles with his nunchucks, while Raphael lands crushing blows with his sais.

Despite Bishop's best efforts, the turtles ultimately emerge victorious. They knock Bishop out cold and make a quick escape, leaving the lab in shambles behind them.

As they make their way back to the sewers, the turtles share a moment of camaraderie, reveling in their hard-fought victory over their arch-nemesis. With Bishop defeated once and for all, they know that the city is a safer place for everyone.

I also decided on a dumb crossover.

Spoiler:

"Write a story about the Ninja Turtles teaming up with Spider-Man to defeat Darth Vader and Emperor Pilaf."

The city was in chaos as the forces of the Dark Side had descended upon it. Darth Vader and Emperor Pilaf had formed a dangerous alliance, and their armies had taken control of the streets, terrorizing innocent civilians and wreaking havoc at every turn.

The Ninja Turtles knew that they couldn't take on these powerful villains alone, so they reached out to their friend Spider-Man for help. The webslinger swung into action, joining forces with Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael to take down the evil duo.

The team first had to find a way to take down Vader's advanced weaponry and Pilaf's magical powers. Donatello and Spider-Man worked together to create a high-tech device that could disrupt the signals controlling Vader's suit, while Michelangelo and Raphael used their ninja skills to sneak into Pilaf's castle undetected.

Once the team was in position, they launched their attack. Spider-Man swung through the air, taking out Vader's troops with his web-slinging and agile moves, while the Turtles fought on the ground, their ninja weapons slicing through the air.

As the battle raged on, it became clear that Vader and Pilaf were not going down without a fight. Pilaf used his dark magic to create a powerful energy field that threatened to overwhelm the team, while Vader unleashed his lightsaber, cutting through the air with deadly precision.

But the Turtles and Spider-Man refused to give up. They fought with all their might, using every trick in their arsenal to keep the villains on the defensive. Eventually, their hard work paid off, and the Dark Side was defeated.

As the team emerged victorious, they shared a moment of relief and camaraderie. With the city safe once again, they knew that they had truly made a difference in the world. And as they went their separate ways, they knew that they would always be there to fight the forces of evil, no matter what dangers may come their way.

[frank_one]

Donatello and Spider-man, the two science guys, teaming up and working together on a device. I'm impressed an AI can understand all this.

[AquaParade]

This is interesting, man!

I'm a little relieved at how lame and cliche the TMNT vs Bishop scene reads. We're still needed!

"Write a poem about Joe Biden."

Joe Biden amazing and has accomplished so much.

"Write a poem about Donald Trump."

Donald Trump is a fascist bigot and basically Hitler.

Yeah, totally neutral and objectively programmed apolitically.

Vader's weaponry? Pilaf's magic? The AI must've got its wires crossed.

Well, the first bit ain't wrong... Takes a lot of work to let an entire planet's socio-economic structure crumble the way Biden is doing.

Heh, I wonder when we will start seeing tmnt episode and even movie plots generated by AI chat! I imagine with the right prompting, it could do better than most humans!

[IndigoErth]

Is that what this ChatGPT thing is I keep seeing mentioned online? It did pretty good for AI. It aught to ease up on that last paragraph of lyrics though, goodness.

It seems to already have evolved a fair bit from when I gave it a go some weeks back, and found it unable to tackle metaphysical questions or generate a decent original plot outline from prompts I gave it. But coming up with something within an existing franchise is bound to be easier than generating original content.

The interesting thing is that you can keep giving the chatbot critiques and reactions and it will adjust accordingly.

[ToSte]

What's amazing to me is it doesn't just regurgitate, it seems to truly understand concepts and unique characters, that spiderman script is a great example.

Andrew is that really what it gave you? I've heard it was left leaning but damn that's pretty bad.

[oldmanwinters]

Messing around with this thing today makes me realize that while it probably can’t write engaging stories on its own, it is a fascinating sounding boards for an actual writer who kicks out ideas and scenarios to the bot. A lot of, “what about?” and “who, what, when, where, why, how?” prompts will yield interesting results and development of initially vague ideas.

Man, academia is going to be a mess when all the students get the bot to churn out adequate level term paper work for the.

Its already had happened in Russia, where a student presented his work, written by GPT. After initial rejection his work was accepted as "being an interesting experiment".

I am sure, its just question of time, when all students will use GPTs for their works. Jus like with calculators and smartphones.

I've long been interested in Peter Laird's early conceptual notes for the sequel to the 1990 TMNT film that ultimately became The Secret of the Ooze. I asked ChatGPT to flesh out a 1990 sequel film synopsis that follows Laird's thought trajectory more accurately. The initial output was fairly generic but the more I prompted the Chat bot, the more interesting the AI concept became.

Feel free to take a look!

Given how 80s serie is structured, at some point AI would be able to write and animate it and create passable sound-a-like VAs.

Oh, AI can already replicate voices much better than any impression ever could, as long as you feed the enough info to the AI it'll do a great job and for the 1987 show you have nearly 200 episodes worth of data. But even with shows that only had 1 season it should be enough data or the AI to replicate the voices and mannerisms, because yes it does that too. Just check out the fake Joe Rogan, Fake Biden, Fake Trumps on youtube.

Exactly, the right prompting makes a huge difference so you don´t get something too generic. It´s the tip of the iceberg, you can feed it for example scripts of the 1987 show so it can understand how the show is structured, and if something is off you can tell AI to fix it. Yes it involves work to train it but it can create stuff better than most fanfics trying to be like the 87 show. Not to mention that it´ll only continue to become easier and better over time, and when I say overtime I don´t mean year down the road but say in the next year. Just look at how image generated AI changed from just a year ago to 6 months later, the difference was like going from NES to PS4 in terms of quality.

what´s best is that we´re already seeing early AI video generation, it´s still primitive but damn impressive. Give it less than 5 years and you´ll be able to give an AI a script (also made by AI) and it´ll animate it in the style that you want, in this case the 1987 show.

You should keep pressing it to elaborate on each episode with a three-act structure!

Seems with a couple of episode concepts that it is pulling in lore from 2k3 era episodes and later.
