I mean, Ao3 has existed for years, and literotica for years longer, but okay, if someone wants something personalised. Vague concerns of plagiarism aside, it’s interesting. The problem I see is that people will take it back to those sites and upload it as their own and not declare it as AI.
We already have AI generated music that has fooled some people. I think AI generated stories will be harder to track. And it’s going to be divisive. One thing I’d like to see is someone prolific like Stephen King do it as an experiment. So King — or, more likely, a young intern working for him — prompts an AI to write a book in the style of Stephen King. And they prompt it to include certain things. Then, Stephen King himself actually writes the book, and the two are packaged together for the cost of the one book. You get the Stephen King version, and you get the AI version which has some ridiculous name. And it’s going to tell the same story, but it’s going to do it slightly differently. So you can read King’s version — I think most readers would either read this one first, or this one only — and then, if you’re up to it, you can read the AI version. This would do two things. One, it would (possibly) prove that AI cannot fully replace human writers. Two (and not mutually exclusive to the previous point), it would give you an alternate-reality version of the first story, and that could be interesting.

this is just “imagine if chatbots were actually useful” fan-fiction
who the hell would want to actually read both the actual King story and the LLM slop version?
at best you’d have LLM fanboys ask their chatbot to summarize the differences between the two, and stroke their neckbeards and say “hmm, isn’t that interesting”
4 emdashes in that paragraph, btw. did you write those yourself?
Or, and hear me out, King could collaborate with another human writer to do the exact same fucking thing to promote human creativity instead of giving AI any more publicity.
Well no shit. You could also maybe stop a tank if you stand in front of it, but maybe it’ll just keep going.
I mention King because he did a similar thing before. He wrote two books, one as himself and one as his alter ego Richard Bachman, and the two books — Desperation and The Regulators — mirrored one another. He also was one of the first nationally/internationally published authors to support ebook (he released a book online only).

Are you asking how to make em dashes? Hold dash on a phone, Shift+Option+Dash on a Mac, Alt+0151 on Windows.
Shit, you might be able to blame me for LLMs using em dashes. Been using them forever. Maybe even longer than you’ve been alive.
