I'm admittedly skeptical. The AI generated novels I've seen have been bad. Really really bad. It's been a few months, however, so maybe the landscape has evolved faster than I expected.

Is there a source you can recommend for further reading?

Which novels? Did you compare them to novels created by handcrafted algorithms? I guarantee you, what you have read wasn't bad, it was fantastically good, compared to anything a software could have come up with without machine learning. So it seems likely that traditional procedural level generation could also be far outperformed by AI systems.

> procedural methods written by humans

I did not understand what you intended here, but I see what you mean. I totally agree that these are the algorithms to beat.

I'd argue that procedural methods should also include human writing processes, which to date have produced the best output.

I assume the technology will get there eventually.
