We keep an eye out for the most interesting stories about Labby subjects: digital media, startups, the web, journalism, strategy, and more. Here’s some of what we’ve seen lately.
“In a post on the social media platform X, Altman wrote: ‘We trained a new model that is good at creative writing (not sure yet how/when it will get released). This is the first time i have been really struck by something written by AI.’…Altman posted an example of the model’s output on X, after giving it the prompt: ‘Please write a metafictional literary short story about AI and grief.’ The story, narrated by an AI, begins with: ‘Before we go any further, I should admit this comes with instructions: be metafictional, be literary, be about AI and grief, and above all, be original. Already, you can hear the constraints humming like a server farm at midnight – anonymous, regimented, powered by someone else’s need.'” —SC
