I shared this article a couple of months ago on the writers thread. Amazing AI writing examples:
“the moon was truly mother-of-pearl, the white of the sea, rubbed smooth by the groins of drowned brides.”
"Alice closed her eyes and sighed, savoring the moment before reality came back crashing down on them like the weight of an elephant sitting on them both while being eaten by a shark in an airplane full of ninjas puking out their eyes and blood for no apparent reason other than that they were ninjas who liked puke so much they couldn’t help themselves from spewing it out of their orifices at every opportunity.”
Though we’re still at the silly stage, AI-generated art and entertainment are clearly going to be here in full strength soon…and while I think creative humans will still be competitive with AI, it’ll be one more source of income inequality, as the people with the best algorithms make a lot more than human creators do.
I can’t see myself using AI for writing, because I don’t have a struggle to come up with writing ideas or take a volume-based approach like the indie authors in the Verge article. For my cover art, I’d rather support a human creator than a computer team.
