Don't surrender, will ChatGPT steal the writer's job? Scholars say: Don't shoulder ChatGPT | Story | Writer

"A few years ago, I joined a project at a company in Beijing and used ChatGPT2 to assist writing for over a month. I wrote two stories and two chapters from a novella. It took me two or three days to write two or three thousand words, but if I were to write it myself, I could finish it in two or three hours. Artificial intelligence assisted writing seemed quite distant. But no one expected that ChatGPT4 would come. With huge computing power, suddenly, the model had magical abilities. Now, the problem we are facing is how to progress together with the model." Lu Xun Literature Award winner and Shanghai writer Xiaobai shared his personal experience. On June 8th, a "Literary Incubation and ChatGPT Seminar" was held at Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts, with representatives from Shanghai Writers Association, Fudan University, Tongji University, and East China

Therefore, talking to late Beethoven is a dialogue with the symbols and intentions in his mind." In "Beyond Performance," Beethoven appears repeatedly in many chapters, becoming a "mirror" for many composers
