AI just wrote my next book … Quantic Brains, the Spanish team of human brains building artificial brains for books, videos and games
June 29, 2023
This week I met Quantic Brains, a Spanish AI-based start-up which is reinventing the way content is created for books, videos and games.
I sat down with founders Manuel Lucania and Julio Covacho, chose a title for my next book, and within 10 minutes it was done. A structured narrative, extensively researched, with commentary and insight, which I could then edit and enhance, all about my specific, chosen topic.
When I normally write books – I have written 10 of them, starting with Marketing Genius, through to the most recent, Business Recoded – it takes me about 18 months at least. After 6-12 months of sitting around struggling to focus on a compelling topic, with new angles and insights, it then takes me another 6-12 months of long hours researching, typing, retyping, my 80000 words.
I found the future in Madrid.
Quantic Brains are actually more focused on video and gaming content – how to use AI to instantly create characters, imagery, special effects, music, voiceovers and much more for the visual arts.
“Our vision is that in 5 years most of the films, series, and video games will be automatically generated with none or very little human intervention. Our goal is to democratize audiovisual content creation with AI powered tools for professionals and non professionals.”
“We develop AI brains that encapsulate different sets of skills to automatize character behaviours (talk, walk, swim, fight…). Once the character is on scene, it interacts with other characters and with exclusive smart objects that can only be used by our brains (sword, piano, phone, ball).”
Maybe my next book will be available very soon …
