I just finished my 1st time reading of an AI generated story. The story was full of typos, stranded letters, wrong pronouns, inconsistent capitalization, often repeated exact descriptions, and more. It feels as though the 'author' didn't bother to read the story before uploading it. I feel cheated...
I must say the story's idea was interesting. I have no idea what involvement this purported 'author' (or any 'author' using AI) has in the creation of an AI generated story. But I do expect an 'author' to respect us readers by cleaning up the story before posting it.
Had this story been submitted as a writing assignment by a high school senior, it would have been graded maybe an 'A' for originality but an overall 'D' or 'C' by depending on how much Ms. Pruett decided to take off for bad proofing and repetitive style. On SOL, readers rated it over 7.5. I guess for those willing to read AI generated stories, this story is above average.
I plowed through it to see if my perception of AI generation was valid. My attention continually drifted to other things because of the number of errors. I'm not likely to read another AI generated story - especially not by this author.
