Star Trek: Endurance
Silver Age Audio; Series (Drama)
Created by Jeremy Slygh, this audio drama started as an experiment with AI. "After I designed a ship (based on an old Starbot cereal toy) and created a crew from one-off Star Trek: The Next Generation characters, a couple of characters based on Star Trek history, and using myself as the ship's captain, I asked ChatGPT to deliver a text-based "choose-your-own-adventure" challenge based on a format I provided in the Star Trek universe. It performed remarkably well. But once I realized ChatGPT was going to keep the story going indefinitely, I provided it with an ending. From there, I translated the story into a script, shortened it, and also edited it to correct for the situations where ChatGPT got off track a little. I used Eleven Labs to clone my voice, selected stock voices from its library, and dropped in the finished script to create the audio version. Using Audacity to combine the finished Eleven Labs audio file with AI-generated music, sound effects from TrekCore.com and Noiiz, it was almost complete. Then, using Sora, I created the videos that would introduce the audio drama. This is the result of that work. It was fun to see this come to life after many human hours were combined with the work produced from AI."
