If the meaningful choices have been made before the AI is engaged -- which seems likely -- then this might have the opposite effect. For example, a few years back one of my coworkers was arrested on a domestic violence complaint. We searched up the charges and were surprised to find an extremely lurid and descriptive account -- right alongside a dozen other identical-but-for-the-name accounts for others arrested on domestic violence complaints that night. Clearly the local police department just had a "domestic violence template" into which they dropped peoples' names without much thought. This level of carelessness would have been much less obvious if they had a LLM change up the details each time.
