It’s hardly surprising when you consider that what gives a writer their distinct voice is to a large extent determined by their own particular diet of others’ writing, which in the case of ChatGPT is… well… everything. So of course you get blandness.
- crooked-v 3y agoYou might find NovelAI interesting. Their homegrown models are intentionally trained to emulate different writing styles [1] and genre standards.

- xanderlewis 3y agoCertainly looks interesting. But why would you want to imitate other writers’ styles, except for pure novelty’s sake? You could also train an AI to imitate yourself, given enough content, but why would you? I’m not sure I fully understand the motivation.

- crooked-v 3y agoNon-AI writers, including professionals, imitate other writers' styles all the time, whether that's specific writers or a general genre. For example, the Dresden Files series started out as an intentional homage/parody of potboiled detective works except with all the urban magic stuff added in, and retained much of that style over time, like the intentionally overdramatic internal narration.

- gpm 3y agoAre the text boxes on that site white on white for anyone else?
- crooked-v 3y agoYeah, I think it's just some kind of CSS error.
- xanderlewis 3y agoInterestingly, on iOS, toggling into dark mode (at OS level) fixes it. I didn’t know web pages had access to that state, but it’s kind of cool.
- chankstein38 3y agoThat's such an interesting thought! You're right, it's basically like Textual Gray!
