Location is a signal, not a pin (geoAI) + asking yourself who’s watching, from where (economic geography) = AI can make a sitcom specific to a country and city to see where it lands.
The future is here. Anyone can create an AI sitcom. Need proof? “Bad Cat” the show. It’s about a cat that does its own thing when her owner leaves. @venturetwins on X has watched four episodes and is waiting on the next one by Daria Zabnieva (instagram: @daria_aicreator).
The next wave of AI shows won’t be one sitcom dubbed into 100 languages. It’ll be a different show based on where the person lives: city, country and culture.
Ask this question when the next AI sitcom hits your feed: which city and country is this show for before you ask how it’s made. Do that enough times and you’ll stop watching AI shows as demos and start reading them as maps.
Here’s your AI sitcom “map” checklist:
- which country and city is this for
- what language does the joke need
- would someone there understand the joke and cultural reference
- which company distributes it and
- is it free or paid in that market?
When I worked as a Research Analyst intern at CNBC, the Research team analyzed the Nielsen ratings and figured out that one person in Oklahoma was driving the ratings. At one point, the VP of Research mused that he should tell the VP of Sales to target that one person so the network could find the appropriate advertisers.
That’s the lesson: place was the missing variable.
If the future of entertainment is a prompt, does it matter where it came from and where it lands?
