story
I provide four examples in my comment...
Yes, those are examples of novellas, surely you believe an LLM could write a bad novella? I'm not sure what your point is. Either you think it can't string the words together in that length or your standard is it can't write a foundational piece of literature that stays relevant for generations... I'm not sure which.
But GP's argument ("limit the space to text") could be taken to imply - and it seems to be a common implication these days - that LLMs have mastered the text medium, or that they will very soon.
> it can't write a foundational piece of literature
Why not, if this a pure textual medium, the corpus includes all the great stories ever written, and possibly many writing workshops and great literature courses?
So at least we can agree that AI hasn't mastered the text medium, without further qualification?
And what about my argument, further qualified, which is that I don't think it could even write as well as a good professional writer - not necessarily a generational one?
