How do you think that AI will influence storytelling?
I have been experimenting by integrating AI into my writing process. I have been using ChatGPT for ideation and Github Copilot to contextually autocomplete sentences and paragraphs for me.
It's cool. But the more I think about it the more skeptical I am that AI will ever be able to supplant human's ability to tell stories. The thing that makes stories so interesting to me personally is riding around in the thoughts and feeling of another human being. It's the tropes and plot expectations that authors play with via story promises. It's the higher level story architecture and plot design.
Maybe it will get there eventually, but currently the way that AI language models work is by taking aggregate ideas for millions of humans texts and combining them. This is the exact opposite of how great stories are created. Great stories have traditionally are born from the mind of an individual, this is the case because very unique viewpoints and perspectives are the exact thing that makes stories so interesting. There are countless examples of giant teams ruining beloved stories that were created by an individual (New Star Wars, The Hobbit Movies, Game of Thrones).
But I've been thinking about this in isolation. Have any other writers or readers on Nostr given thought to how AI will impact storytelling?
