What happened with poetry?

[busker]

My ChatGPT writes good poetry, it's mimicking me. I write good poetry, I mimic the good poetry I obsessively read.
If anything appears original about what I write, it's simply an original amalgam of certain influences.


What ChatGPT is not yet mimicking is the fucked up stuff that humans go through.
And do we want them to?

Humans need art to deal with our suffering, and making our suffering worth it.

AIs mimic our loves and fears. But, ask any one of them, and unless they are programmed to not break character, they will admit that they don't know what humans are about.
