Literary Criticism for an AI Age
In my humanities-dominated circles, I risk being labeled a heretic by admitting that I think AI prose can be quite skillful, often better than what most college students are capable of. The position of some proponents of the humanities, who utterly reject the notion that much of human writing can be imitated and mechanically reproduced by machines, is not a sustainable one.
If there is continued merit in reading human-generated text — which I think there is — it cannot stem solely from the aesthetic quality of the prose.
But then, what else can it stem from?
