A study in Nature finds that participants couldn't distinguish AI drafts from works by 10 famous poets. And the participants also preferred the AI's writings.

AI models can produce poems that rate well on certain ‘metrics’. But the event of reading poetry is not one in which we arrive at standardised outcomes.

Readers give higher ratings to AI-generated poetry than the works of poets such as William Shakespeare, Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson – perhaps because they often have more straightforward themes a

Readers are unable to reliably differentiate AI-generated from human-written poetry and are more likely to prefer AI poems, according to new research published in Scientific Reports. This tendency to rate AI poetry positively may be due to readers mistaking the complexity of human-written verse for incoherence created by AI and an underestimation of how human-like generative AI can appear.

New research conducted by philosophers of science Brian Porter and Edouard Machery suggests that the latest AI-generated poetry is “indistinguishable from human-written poetry” and “rated more favourably”.

A new study finds that people prefer poems written by ChatGPT, a chatbot, over those written by human writers.
