Could AI Help Create New Prodigy Episodes in the Future?

[Lord Garth]

As hackers grow more capable and computer viruses grow more sophisticated, the number of people who can smash the whole interconnected mess to splinters is going to grow. And unfortunately, we're so reliant on the Web, if it goes down, we'll basically be knocked back to the 1870's.

First half of the 1990s, but yes.

I certainly wasn't advocating for it.

And I get that. There's a difference between anticipating something and being ready for it, and punishing someone for it like it happened.

First half of the 1990s, but yes.

Except if the Web fails, I'm pretty sure our power grid goes with it.

Re PRO, I think the best plan for its perpetuation lies in the novel market, either adult or YA. No AI's, no taxing animation process. Just creative human minds, telling mostly episodic tales of the adventures of the Protostar-A and its crew as it journeys to strange new worlds.

^^Not a bad idea aside from the fact that Trek novels have become something of an endangered species in recent years.

YA or even the Light Novel format is something the Trek franchise should absolutely capitalize on again, like the old Starfleet Academy series from the mid-90s.
