OpenAI’s artificial intelligence software was asked to create a screenplay about the CIA putting a hit out on Clark Kent, along with a title and image for the movie.
Prompt: Write a long screenplay about the CIA trying to murder Clark Kent and making it look like an accident. Not because they know he’s Superman but because he’s a really good journalist. Make it a comedy because the CIA assassins can’t figure out why their attempts keep failing.

Response:
The CIA’s Kryptonite
INT. CIA HEADQUARTERS – DAY
The CIA is gathered around a table, discussing their latest target.
AGENT #1
We’ve been monitoring Kent for a while now. He’s getting too close to the truth.
AGENT #2
He’s a liability. If he keeps digging, he’ll expose us.
AGENT #3
We can’t let that happen. We need to take him out.
The agents plot to murder Clark Kent and make it look like an accident. They hire a group of assassins to do the job.
INT. KENT’S APARTMENT – DAY
Clark is working on his latest story when he gets a knock at the door. He opens it to find the assassins.
ASSASSIN #1
Hey, Clark. We’ve been hired to kill you.
Clark is shocked.
CLARK
What? Why?
ASSASSIN #2
The CIA wants you dead. They think you’re a liability.
CLARK
But I’m just a journalist. I don’t know anything.
ASSASSIN #1
That doesn’t matter. They want you dead.
The assassins try to kill Clark, but they can’t. No matter what they do, Clark always manages to survive.
AGENT #1
I don’t understand. Why can’t we kill him?
AGENT #2
I don’t know. It’s like he has a superpower or something.
AGENT #3
We need to find out what his weakness is and use it against him.
The agents do some research and discover that Clark is allergic to kryptonite. They decide to use this to their advantage.
INT. KENT’S APARTMENT – NIGHT
The assassins break into Clark’s apartment and plant kryptonite around the place.
CLARK
What the hell is this?
ASSASSIN #1
Kryptonite. It’s your weakness.
CLARK
No, it can’t be.
ASSASSIN #2
It is. And now it’s going to kill you.
The assassins leave and Clark starts to feel the effects of the kryptonite. He starts to feel weak and dizzy. He knows he needs to get away from the kryptonite, but he can’t. He falls to the ground and starts to convulse.
CLARK
Help! Someone, please help me!
Fortunately, Clark is saved in the nick of time by his friends, who have figured out what the assassins have done.
FRIEND #1
Clark, we need to get you to a hospital.
CLARK
No, I’ll be fine. Just get me away from the kryptonite.
FRIEND #2
We will. Don’t worry, Clark. You’re going to be okay.
The friends take Clark to the hospital, where he makes a full recovery. The CIA is thwarted once again.
AGENT #1
I don’t understand. How did he survive?
AGENT #2
I don’t know. But we’re not giving up. We’ll get him eventually.
AGENT #3
Yes. We will.
