I find absolutely consistently that gen-AI advocates are literally unable to tell good output from bad output. They think people who say their output is garbage are just lying to have a go at them.

we trained a new model that is good at creative writing (not sure yet how/when it will get released). this is the first time i have been really struck by something written by AI; it got the vibe of metafiction so right. PROMPT: Please write a metafictional literary short story

    I’ve just realised:

    this reads just like a neoreactionary trying to be literary

    e.g. the Dimes Square literary astroturf crowd

    same problem as gen AI output: too much style, zero understanding of basic structure, you cannot get that fine detailed in structure and be that bad at the basics.

        … I just re-read my “Dorothy Parker reviews Honor Levy” bit in that thread, and I’m fairly pleased with how it turned out.
