edit the question to: “How much do you care”
I love reading and am always on the hunt for a new book.
I’ve noticed an uptick in AI-generated books on Amazon. Often the AI books lack plot or experience of being human that leads to them reading as very machine-like. The author pages sometimes have AI generated photos too.
Oversaturation of this kind of content makes finding high quality, and human-authored text (which has more depth in my opinion) really hard. It’s also so frustrating for me because writing a book used to be a way to proclaim some sort of authority in storytelling, or if it’s non-fiction, a specific subject. Now, that hard work of creating authority is being shrunk down into some well-constructed prompts.
What are your thoughts on what finding books to read in the future will be like?
Do you care if a book is human authored or AI-created?
To what lengths do/would you go to find high quality reading by a human?
AI doesn’t create or write or paint or film anything. It uses stuff that is made by humans and mashes it together based on a prompt.
An AI can’t author anything.
When I read or indulge in any artform I’m not just mindlessly consuming crap, I’m thinking about the intention behind such creations and that is what makes it special.
An AI does not have any intention in its actions it’s just a tool used to steal.
