Their approach to directing is not that of a troupe leader, but rather that of a painter or a solo musician. To help them do this, AI-powered tools have improved significantly Since these tools simplify certain technical aspects of the creative process, more time can be devoted to brainstorming ideas.<\/p>\n And it is up to human sensory intelligence to know how to stimulate and then detect the embryos generated by these machines in order to nurture them, combine them, correct them, and bring them closer to the soul of the one who manipulates them.<\/p>\n Finally, these mindless machines spur the renewal of human thought. They offer new opportunities for the unexpected\u2014 something so valuable to a creative person.<\/p>\n \u201cNo door left open by chance can scare away poetry, which is already so difficult to trap it.
