My Immortal is a better story than Altman's AI slop | deadSimpleTech In this light, AI-generated "fiction" is already broken from the get-go. What makes fiction interesting and compelling is, in large part, the spark of recognition: of seeing your experience reflected by someone else, of seeing how someone else sees and experiences the world, of recognising something in a story that you can take from it and put into your own life. This - all of this - is deeply dependent on the aforementioned relationality of fiction: fiction without an author feels wrong, and almost fraudulent, as though the person who generated the story is lying to you by pretending to have had experiences, thoughts and feelings that he actually hasn't. The reaction this generates is a subconscious level of disgust and violation, as we're expected to pretend that (in this case) Sam Altman has feelings that he's never shown any evidence of being capable of. https://deadsimpletech.com/blog/altman_my_immortal
