Researchers at Sorbonne University in Paris have co-written a new play in the style of 17th-century French playwright Molière using an AI tool named Le Chat. The experimental comedy, titled L’Astrologue ou les Faux Présages, debuted at the Château de Versailles after a two-and-a-half-year development process involving extensive 'intellectual ping pong' between human experts and the AI. While the AI contributed to dialogue, music, costumes, and scenery, the researchers emphasized it was a collaborative effort, not a play written solely by AI, aiming to balance human creativity with technological capabilities.
