A study published in the journal Science
Advances finds
that AI enhances creativity by boosting the
novelty of
story ideas as well as the 'usefulness' of
stories—their
ability to engage the target audience and
potential for
publication. The paper is titled "Generative AI
enhances
individual creativity but reduces the
collective diversity
of novel content."
It finds that AI "professionalizes" stories,
making them
more enjoyable, more likely to have plot
twists, better
written and less boring.
In a study in which 300 participants were
tasked with
writing a short, eight-sentence 'micro story'
for a target
audience of young adults, researchers found
that AI made
those deemed less creative produce work that
was up
to 26.6% better written and 15.2% less boring.
. . .
2030 ... And the Nobel Prize for Literature
goes
to CHAT-5.75 ............
So much for "humans" anymore, eh ?
Tolkien didn't need AI to create an entire
universe ......
People who are bad at writing can benefit from
machines who are mediocre at writing. Big
surprise. I don't think either one of those
groups is going to be winning any medals.
Ummmmmm ... just wait .........
Humans are rapidly becoming less and less literate.
Saw a TV commercial a few hours ago for some AI app
that fixes/condenses your 'grammar' - the 'office
guru' claiming that's how she got ahead.
Of course "AI" will put her entirely out of a job
soon enough ... 95% of 'office jobs' will be the
first to go. Tick, tick, tick ........ no more
maternity leave, no more unions, no more sick-leave
scams, no more bearded 'ladies' demanding to be
'more equal', no more company insurance woes, no
more harassment/toxic-workspace screaming, no
more squad of lawyers to deal with it all .......
TELL me it ain't worth replacing almost ALL humans
in that sort of work !
Of course, once enough humans are obsolete, well, they
won't have any MONEY to BUY YOUR STUFF - but biz rarely
thinks beyond the next quarter .......
