My last two AI posts were not meant to evangelize, just preface to this post, in which I talk about some things I’ve been considering doing.  Tho I’ll mention the possibility of using AI for something, and again request that haters refrain from comment.

I’ve been considering the use of my blog as a platform for just spitting out copious amounts of fiction, like earlier this year when Josefina y Blasfemia battled the Wall of Ice.  Since not everybody likes every genre, I’d serialize stories once per week on their own day.  Then, if you like, you can just follow the one for your genre of choice.  Por ejemplo:

• Gay Gothic Monday:  Some dude has gay romance in dark and brooding circumstances, posted once per week, until his damnation is compleat.
• Erotic Thriller Tuesday:  A hot sexy dame is up to no good, with murder and sexy sex.  She’s trisexual and bdsm-ish, and the police and lawyers can’t keep up.
• Murder Mystery Wednesday:  For old-timers like Mano.
• Men’s Adventure Thursday:  Some dude has to James Bond or Indiana Jones about the world, romancing hot dames when he isn’t having his flesh ripped by killer weasels, or having to arm-wrestle communist robots.
• Christian Romance Friday:  Psych.  I dunno.  You get the idea.

This would be a lot of work and I wouldn’t always have the sauce for it, but I am certain – despite the generous comments I’ve gotten before re: scheduling – that keeping up a good posting pace is essential for my purposes.  This is useless if you forget what’s going on because I haven’t posted in six months.  I wants to spellbind.

This raises the possibility of not relying on my own powers alone for every part of the writing.  I could use AI to assist with the writing, per my Robot Jox post.  To those who are not reflexive haters of all things AI, my questions to you are these:  Would you read at least one story that is serialized once per week?  Would you like this less if you knew it was cowritten by AI?  Might that make it more interesting, in a way, to see what is possible in that domain?

I do tend to pride myself on creative writing, so I don’t mind going wholly unassisted, but it does make it less likely to actually happen, or to only come out in some more limited version.  Actually, that brings up an interesting experiment.  What if I run only two stories, one unassisted, and one which makes maximum use of AI, for comparison?

Another amusing use for AI would be to create a “guest blogger” who is pure AI, and just get them to write about atheokeptic issues from a progressive political pov, for a glimpse of that dreaded day when FtB is replaced by cyborgs.

I dub these “hubristickal schemes” because even the AI versions would be more work than I’ve put into the blog since back when I was on daily posting.
