Just tried ChatGPT. I said “write a short story in the style of Lovecraft.”
I got:
“In the quaint coastal town of Innsmouth, a sense of foreboding hung heavy
in the air. The townsfolk, with their bulging eyes and grotesque features,
whispered of forbidden secrets that lay buried beneath the murky depths of
the sea.
James Sinclair, an intrepid scholar of the occult, had arrived in Innsmouth
with a burning curiosity to uncover the truth behind the town’s whispered
tales. Armed with a notebook and a determined spirit, he began his
investigation, delving into the town’s dark history.”
I’d give it, at best, a C-. “He” knew who Lovecraft was, but the style and
language doesn’t sound at all close.
