A Mystery Told

What Happens When AI Writes a Novel?

Even though we’re far from reaching the maximum capacity of AI writing software, we should not underestimate them. Creative coder Andreas Refsgaard reflects on the future of these tools.

AI can create a larger amount of content than a human being, and at a faster pace. The Press Association, for example, is able to produce 30.000 local news stories using AI (Best Practice AI). And as Forbes pointed out, many media organizations, such as The New York Times, Washington Post, and Yahoo! Sports, already use AI to create content.

Andreas Refsgaard is an artist and creative coder based in Copenhagen. He uses algorithms and machine learning to make unconventional connections between inputs and outputs.

Among all the exciting things he’s done, Andreas has experimented with models that use artificial intelligence and machine learning to produce poetry (Poems About Things and Start A Sentence). He also built an entire online bookstore selling AI-generated sci-fi novels (BOOKSBY.AI).

Machine learning doesn’t only make content writing simpler and faster. It is also able to find huge quantities of potentially relevant topics to write about and use a tone of voice that better convinces the reader.
