Writing is supposed to communicate meaning; Spamming generated content with the appearance of meaning is poisoning the well.
I'm pleased that there is push back against this, but I don't think the people championing GPT are willing or even able to listen.
- tzs 4y agoWith fiction though the meaning that the reader gets often is not the meaning the writer intended, and often not even related to the meaning the writer intended. The story often serves more as a prompt to get the reader to create meaning than as a way for the writer's meaning to be communicated to the reader. It's not clear that real meaning from the writer as opposed to the appearance of meaning matters as far as how well the story works to get the reader to generate their own meaning.
