/siberia/ - Off-topic

(Disclaimer 1: I am not in any way a good writer or implying that I am.)
(Disclaimer 2: for the past few months I've only used janitor.ai for any significant amount of time. However, when people have tried to convince me other tools are better they have generally failed to do so.)
(Disclaimer 3: I'm not anti-AI writing so this isn't luddite cope.)

In fact I *want* AI writing to at least be decent so I can use it to generate slop that doesn't have enough value for me to want to spend time writing, but is also too specifically attuned to my tastes to exist out there in the world done by actual humans.
(And I'm not talking about porn, it does meet the extremely low criteria needed for my monkey brain to want to jack off to something.)

BUT INSTEAD:
>maddening purple prose stuffed with clichéd phrases
>failure to grasp intended tone/aesthetic
>characters and situations are regressed to the mean, e.g. if you write a flat-chested female character or a lithe male character it just ends up treating the former like an hourglass-shaped bombshell and the latter like an Adonis regardless; so it actively resists attempts to not be the most clichéd thing ever
>seems reluctant to actually contribute anything of substance to the story, kind of just leaves it to you to provide all the interesting parts
>forgets things early and easily, but this at least is theoretically surmountable with better efficiency
>incapable of spatial reasoning; contradicts its own descriptions from one sentence to the next. this doesn't seem as obviously solvable as the memory issue

And this is for *slop*. Let alone real literature.

It's easy to be impressed with video and image generation because the barrier for doing those things by hand is so high. But writing is just writing, the vast majority of us can do it, if not well. There's no manual skill threshold, good writing comes down to one's knowledge, tastefulness and inspiration.
LLMs basically seem like fill-in-the-gap machines for the actually interesting elements *you* provide. For porn, this works fine, because filler is basically crucial to porn anyway (compare how a porn film will have five minutes of a single shot showing the same action vs how nearly every other film does things).
For anything trying to rise to the level of mere entertainment, it's SHITE, mate.
People keep saying it's gonna get better and I'm WAITING, bro. But I'm not convinced it will.
Again, image generation can make strides that are impressive to us because it just needs to get more convincing. AI writing is already convincing, but it's not interesting, and it's not trained to be interesting, and I'm not sure it can be.
But I'm willing to be proven wrong. Seriously, if you can recommend me a writing tool that will generate my dumb freak slop for me I would be genuinely grateful! I'm just skeptical of the possibility tbh.
