this is interesting, but feels at best incomplete. i think there are at least 3 separate reasons we haven't yet seen consistently good writing from AI, at least in long form (microfiction is arguably mostly solved): 🧵

Ryan Moulton@moultano.bsky.social

Hypothesis: AI writing is bad primarily because in general what makes writing good is the specificity of what it communicates and its information density, so the prompt that produced good AI writing would be as long as the output.

The main thing is that "AI" doesn't write anything. It strings together statistically related tokens. Writing requires having a mind and understanding both abstract concepts and reality; humans and nature; motivations and emotions; actions and consequences.
