GRRM is worried AI will finish writing his books before him

We could teach ducks to write and they will finish before him.

Would you rather it was finished by 100 duck sized George RR Martins or a George RR Martin sized duck?

Get those 100 duck sized GRRM's a bunch of mini keyboards and they'll get it done 100 times faster

And then everyone would bitch because it wasn't good, like what happend with the last seasons of GoT.

Idk, my neighbor had a duck. It'd probably have put more effort into the ending than the show writers did

Another moment in A Dream of Spring involved Bran receiving a vision that The Wall was not just a physical barrier, but a mystical shield holding back the Night King's power. "This twist fits well within the universe and raises tension for the remainder of the story," Swayne remarks.

That's just a popular fan theory that has been discussed countless times on various forums.

I guess we can conclude that ChatGPT has been reading a lot of reddit.

Absolutely it has been. That's what sparked the whole Reddit API debacle. Reddit wants that sweet cash stream from machine learning trawling it's data.

Well, assuming it wasn’t all nuked over the past few months, the fan theory stuff on Reddit was probably a pretty good training dataset.

He still hasnt released the TWOW yet? Srsly, i feel sad for his fanbase.

Most of us have reached the Acceptance stage now.

Actually getting a good ending to the ASOIAF after GRRM dies is gonna be one of the big turning points that transforms everyone's opinion on AI.

It's gonna be like fan edits for movies. People will debate which is the better version of the story. The only person hurt by this is George, who will be dead and was never going to finish the books anyways.

Since he will never finish the next book, then that's very likely given infinite time :)

I mean… AGOT might be in the public domain before TWOW comes out.
