The development of artificial intelligence suddenly forces us to think about the essence of things we previously took for granted. If AI can generate a technically mature work, what is the essence of artistic creation? If it can effectively summarize the content of an explanation and immediately suggest a set of creative exercises, what is the essence of art education in academies? This essay is based on my study of the extensive video archive of lectures of Frank Daniel – an influential Czech-American screenwriter and film professor. I draw on B. Eldagsen’s reflections on promptography and I return to the idea that the tool should be perceived as a co-creator of the work. Through M. Buber’s concept of presence, I then explain why I cannot use the AI tool in the context of my research project. The time I spent transcribing allows me to get closer to the I-Thou relationship, that is essential to my screenwriting understanding of Frank Daniel as a character, and to be aware of the essence of Daniel's pedagogical influence, the core of which ultimately lies outside the scope of AI.
