What if using AI to write fiction isn't an evil act?
My quest for more nuanced discussions about the use of AI in fiction writing.
PS: This issue will be paywalled a few days after it is published.
When AI first came out, like all other writers, I was pissed off that our work was used to train an LLM model that would replace what made us valuable and special.
Despite all the arguments that LLMs won't replace actual writers, you bet your socks that some companies and individuals would try.
However, I am a realist, and also a tech nerd, so I began pushing buttons to see what the fuss was all about.
What I found for myself was that AI (LLMs, anyway) gave me relief.
A lot of it.
And it may have also solved a decades-old problem that I've had with writing fiction.
