The use of generative AI in the creative field remains controversial because these systems are trained on a large corpus of other authors' works. The AI system will copy the text it has been trained on, including personal information of real people scavenged from the Internet. In addition, writing with ChatGPT will face a series of potential legal issues, such as copyright issues. Last year, several writers sued OpenAI for using their works in the data for training the model, infringing on copyright. Therefore, the use of AI to participate in creation has triggered discussions on the impact and respect for traditional creators.
In addition, the use of generative AI in creation has also sparked heated discussions in other creative fields, not just in the literary field. Some people are skeptical about AI's participation in creation, and worry that the future of literature and art will be affected. However, some people believe that AI is a new creative tool that can bring different creative experiences and works. Some people even regard AI as their creative partner and are willing to communicate with it and use its creative content.
In general, the use of generative AI to participate in creation has caused a lot of controversy and discussion in the field of literature and art, including the impact on creators, copyright issues, and challenges to traditional creative methods. Whether you support or oppose it, you need to seriously consider the reasonable application and impact of AI in the creative field on the premise of protecting the rights of creators, so as to better promote the development of literature and art.
