I read the interesting article about Tezuka manga Black Jack.

A new episode of the manga “Black Jack,” one of the best-loved works by Osamu Tezuka, has been created with the help of AI ( artificial intelligence).
The manga were carried in the Shukan Shonen Champion’s 52nd issue of the year.

In this project, AI studied text data from 200 episodes and data for 20,000 different facial images of characters.

A story plot was then conceived through dialogues between AI and humans.
And new characters were designed based on images generated by AI.

However, all drawings were done by the staff at Tezuka Productions and creators outside the company.
So no AI-generated images are used in the manga.

Makoto Tezuka, Osamu Tezuka’s son and a director of Tezuka Productions Co,said at a press conference,
“I was surprised that the AI clearly suggested to us the theme about the sanctity of life for the new story,
It turned out to be a very ‘Black Jack’ work”.

While reading this article, I definitely wanted to read this work.
