This going to be a revolution among fanfic writers and indie authors, where "bulk writing assistance" is exactly what they need to avoid burnout.
Now we just need finetuning/embeddings... Something where we can, say, feed it canon and the top 200 AO3 stories in a certain category/style, so it can get a good grasp of a fictional world without having to prod it so much.
- jamilton 4y agoI feel like most hobbyist authors enjoy writing-as-writing enough that they wouldn't use AI to write something for them. But there's definitely a minority who mostly just want a story to exist who probably would use a better version of this process.
- brucethemoose2 4y agoI dunno, many of the best authors burn out writing long stories and will even mention time/personal issues. An LLM doesn't have to write it for them, it can just speed things up.

An LLM doesn't have to write it for them, it can just speed things up I think this is probably the correct interpretation. I used it last week to outline a blog post that I then edited and iterated on. In the end it came out like I wanted it, but it took half the time and was quite a bit less frustrating being able to cut out that initial feeling of staring a blank page and having to make so many decisions. I think what it will do is adjust the effort-to-reward ratio of a large number of tasks that people want to have the satisfaction of having completed, but don't want the pain of grinding all the way through.
