What if we let ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini cosplay as famous authors? Would anyone notice? Would critics swoon? Would readers care? Spoiler alert: finetuning works really good, a new study finds. (Rosalia Anna D’Agostino, LinkedIn)

Summary

  • The study finds AI-generated texts can emulate authors' styles, preferred by experts and readers alike.
  • The median fine-tuning and inference cost of $81 per author is a dramatic 99.7% reduction vs. hiring a writer.
  • This realization makes the author uncomfortable, as the magic of the 'penna' (pen) may be lost to a cost-effective solution.
