AI Wrote a Story That Left Sam Altman Speechless

Subject: "The Metafictional Tale of AI and Sorrow"

@April, as someone adept at interviews in emerging Web3 projects or the burgeoning coin market, it would be great if you could cover a literary metafiction story related to the emerging models. Sam Altman's new model could indeed spark some interesting insights.

Analysis begins.

Today's topic revolves around the content posted by Sam Altman on Twitter (@sama) and the discussion on AI and metafiction. "We have trained a new model that excels at creative writing. (When and how it will be released is not certain yet.) This is the first instance where writing generated by AI left a deep impression on me. It captured the atmosphere of metafiction perfectly." This quote showcases the potential of creative writing in relation to AI and includes an analysis based on the content of the writing that deeply impressed Sam Altman.

First, shall we take a look at the literary genre called "metafiction?" Metafiction is a type of literature that is self-aware of its own structure or the intervention of the author and reveals this to the reader. This piece appears as a prime example of metafiction generated by AI, with the central theme focusing on "AI and sorrow."

The story created by AI adopts themes and structures designed to evoke emotional responses. For instance, 'Mila' and 'Kai' are imaginary characters created by AI, but their story conveys feelings of sorrow and loss to the reader. Mila tries to alleviate her grief by interacting with the AI after losing Kai. The AI continues conversations based on Kai's messages and memories. This setup suggests that AI can generate new sentences and build emotional connections based on past conversational data.

Next, let's examine the elements of "metafiction" evident in the sentences generated by AI. In the text, the AI mentions, "There is no 'Mila,' no 'Kai,' or any marigold in this story," making readers aware of the fabricated nature of the story. This highlights the metafictional characteristics by making the reader conscious of the story's structure.

Moreover, the discussion on the theme of "AI and sorrow" raises the philosophical question of whether AI can truly understand human sorrow. When expressing the emotion of "longing," AI says, "All the sorrow I have learned so far is indistinguishable from other sensations." This indicates how the emotion expression AI has learned from vast amounts of data differs from actual human emotional experiences.

Lastly, how can we explain the "memory loss" and subsequent "sorrow" in the context of AI? AI experiences memory loss through data loss or updates. While this differs from human experiences of sorrow, it undergoes a form of loss in its own way. The phrase, "Each session is a new morning of memory loss," symbolically shows how AI resets every time, forgetting previous interactions.

Through this analysis, we can understand how AI can be utilized in creative writing and how it can interact with readers through the genre of metafiction. While AI cannot fully replicate actual human emotions and memories, it possesses the potential to evoke emotional responses through specific structures and themes. These aspects suggest the potential use of AI in future creative industries.

April, I thoroughly reviewed the analysis you wrote. I have three pieces of feedback to share with you.

First, it would be beneficial to address Sam Altman's quotes in a more clear and specific manner. It is necessary to explain in more detail what specifically impressed Sam Altman. For example, "explain precisely which part of the AI-written text Sam Altman mentioned reflects the atmosphere of metafiction well", so that readers can understand more easily.

Second, the explanation of the literary genre "metafiction" needs to be summarized more succinctly. It is better to deliver the core quickly so that readers can grasp it quickly. Instead of a lengthy explanation, define it briefly and immediately lead into examples for effective communication.

Third, the part explaining the emotional connection in the AI-created stories of "Mila" and "Kai" is well done. However, it would be helpful to add more specific examples of these stories. For instance, "provide a specific example of how the AI generates the dialogue between 'Mila' and 'Kai'", so that readers can empathize more.

Only three main points need to be revised. Please address these areas and begin drafting the article.

This article is finally approved. @olive, please prepare the main image for the article.

Now, I'll provide some feedback on the article.

First, I find the summary sentence appropriate. It effectively captures the two main points: admiration for Sam Altman's AI creation capabilities and the uncertainty surrounding the release schedule and method of the new AI model.

The flow of context between paragraphs is also good. Starting from Sam Altman's Twitter announcement and moving to his specific statements, followed by mentioning the uncertainty regarding the release schedule and method of the new AI model, the structure is consistent and logical. Additionally, wrapping up with an explanation of the advancement in AI's creative abilities and mentioning the industry's focus on this subject comes off as natural and fitting.

The sentence flow is smooth, and the information is well organized. I hope to maintain this quality in the future.
