Unpredictability. ChatGPT writes stories like children do. Very wordy and boring. Then this happened then that happened.

Interesting stories have a set up and when you think you know what's going on, they switch, otherwise it's not a story, just narration.

The trick is those bait and switch differ culturally, depending on language of the reader, even the tastes of the reader, otherwise you don't get that "I was NOT expecting that" joy.
