Discussion I see posts about ai-generated fics here on Reddit and I'm CONFUSED
I wrote several fanfics and I'm currently writing my own book. I'm against AI and it hurts me when people use it to write their books. Like, I mean... Don't. Just DON'T. It doesn't give you any benefits AT ALL.
But, though I don't accept it, I know why people are doing this with books.
BUT. WHY. FANFICTION?
You don't get money from it. Only thing you get is your own pride of yourself and some nice words from other fans. So why???
Fics are fundamentaly controdictions with AI. They grow from love and passion, they connect people. Most of fanfiction authors have zero or very small experience, but who cares? They always can improve and if you don't want to read their works, you just don't. AI don't have a passion, it doesn't feel. It don't know those characters. You can tell it about them, but it doesn't pass the test (lol sorry. I have this kind of parallel in my native language. Not sure if something like this exists in English).
What do you think about this? Can somone explain?
