I think there is an interesting use case for AI in fiction, but it's not spamming publishers and readers with slop books. The thing about fiction is we already have SO MUCH and the good stuff is evergreen, so the number one metric that matters is quality not quantity.

I think if people want to use AI in fiction, the most promising area would be dynamically reactive story telling. Kind of a "choose your own adventure" but where the choices aren't fixed. Of course, that's a _hard_ problem, and I don't think inference is nearly cheap enough yet to broadly commercialize it, but it's a way better use of AI then "publish 300 books to try to skim off the long tail"
