Meta-Literature in the Algoricene: Exploring the Frontiers of Artificial Intelligence
Abstract
This paper explores the potential creative tasks achieved by the new generative text artificial intelligences. After historical, philosophical, and methodological foundations of artificial intelligence research program as LongWriter, it concludes that no algorithm exists for literary creativity. While artificial intelligence is increasingly becoming a fundamental component of our society and culture, certain aspects remain beyond the scope of computation and algorithmic replication. Despite significant advancements
in artificial intelligence driven by enhanced computational power, it remains incapable of emulating highly significant human activities, such as abductive reasoning. Algorithms do not encompass the full spectrum of human activities. Meta-literature, characterized by its multiple, evolving, hybrid, and mobile fragments, is a phenomenon that resists objectivation. These premises suggest the possibility of developing a new theory of literature that aligns with the era of artificial intelligence.
