How do you create a movie trailer about a fictional artificially enhanced human? You turn to the real thing – artificial intelligence.
Scientists at IBM Research have collaborated with 20th Century Fox to create the first-ever cognitive movie trailer for the movie “Morgan.”
Utilizing experimental Watson APIs and machine learning techniques, the IBM Research system analyzed hundreds of horror/thriller movie trailers. After learning what keeps audiences on the edge of their seats, the AI system suggested the top 10 best candidate moments for a trailer from the movie “Morgan,” which an IBM filmmaker then edited and arranged together.
Check out the AI-Created trailer below to get ready for “Morgan” in theaters this Friday, September 2nd
