I don't think it's true that no authors will write heroic fantasy anymore and I don't believe AI can write satisfying fiction at this point

[(Anonymous)]

Nah.

[(Anonymous)]

Not the weirdest fandom to have fanfiction, IMO.

Inspired by #7

[(Anonymous)]

What is the weirdest thing you have read fic of? Or what's the weirdest thing you've wanted fic for but haven't been able to find?

Re: Inspired by #7

[(Anonymous)]

I still think Minesweeper is the weirdest.

Everything I’ve seen from ChatGPT longer than a paragraph looks like shit.

[(Anonymous)]

Did an AI write this secret?

[(Anonymous)]

I commented on the original post that you must not mind reading, basically, heroic fantasy madlibs.

Hearing that at least one short sci-fi fiction magazine had to shut down submissions when they were inundated with AI generated stories didn't change my initial assumption at all.

Enjoy your bland cookie cutter short stories, I guess?

I never had any desire to professionally publish or sell my work. Most all my original writing has been or at least began as assignments, and most of my fanfic is drawerfic and all only written for fun.

But I enjoy thinking about the thought process behind a story when I read it; why this word choice, why this plot point, wow I wish I could do that... and "because an AI learned to ape lots of writers but doesn't understand any of them or what it's doing" just doesn't make for fun reading, for me.

There's a special kind of petty malevolence in posting small-brained pro-AI flexing on a web 1.0 platform.

I tried ChatGPT to create drabbles for one of my fandoms but the writing was way too cringe. Maybe I'll try it again with the new update.

Also, ChatGPT gives very weird answers when trying to get info on authors on AO3. Like asking who the biggest authors for fandoms are, what tags are used in which fandoms, most popular writers in a pairing, etc. Even accounting for the fact that the data is from last year. It's pretty funny. Asking about fandom stuff in general can be pretty hilarious.

To be fair to AI this is likely a temporary condition
