Descrizione

The proposed research analyzes what the results of creative writing practices based on GPT-3 technologies are and how they are presented by the media. ChatGPT has appeared as a co-author in “fiction” such as children’s fairy tales, graphic novels, manga, screenplays, and novels. Despite the lack of enthusiasm shown by readers, the media describe a continuously growing phenomenon. The research analyzes how genres and creative writing practices based on GPT-3 technologies, such as ChatGPT, are presented in the media. In fact, the media favor the consolidation of a “technological imaginary”. And on the other hand, these innovations are already being used to produce texts that could be destined to change the canon in the future. The research is conducted on editorial productions and discourses circulating online. In particular, from the Amazon Books catalog we analyze which genres are favored in this first phase of using AI in the publishing sector. The main topics on which some pop narratives are based were obtained from Google News. The main themes describe a technological imaginary based on anxieties and worries. At the same time, the media contributes to reformulating some pop myths that act as an antidote to the fear of innovation.
