ChatGPT's New Creative Model Is Good at Writing, But I'm Not Convinced
1 min read
Summary
ChatGPT has a new model for creative writing, with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman sharing a short story it wrote as an example of its capabilities.
The story was met with mixed reactions, with some concerned about the future of human writers, while others felt it was not well written.
Artificial intelligence is good at tasks that have a defined process, but fiction writing requires a level of creativity that AI is not capable of.
AI works by replicating information it has absorbed from other sources, rather than creating new ideas and experiences through lived experiences.
While AI will likely never be as good as humans at creative writing, books produced by AI are already widely available and may become more common due to their cost-effectiveness.
