I thought AI writing a whole book was just hype until I saw a friend's project

My friend in Chicago spent 6 months using a tool called Sudowrite to draft a novel, and I was sure it would be a mess, but the final outline and first chapters were actually solid. He used it to get past writer's block and flesh out scenes, which completely changed my mind about AI's creative limits. Has anyone else had a moment where an AI use case you doubted turned out to be surprisingly good?

Grace's point about coffee stains is interesting, but what if AI books just make us value the messy human stuff more, like how streaming made vinyl cool again.

Guess we'll all be reading AI ghostwritten beach novels next summer. So much for the tortured artist stereotype, right?

Remember when they said digital art would kill painting? Now people pay crazy money for handmade stuff. Maybe we'll all just want books with coffee stains and weird margin notes.
