Abstract
The appearance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems have become more adept at generating original texts, becoming the realm of storytelling, as exemplified by ChatGPT and similar language models. This has sparked a growing debate about its impact on the originality and uniqueness of human creativity and thinking. Bringing up the question of whether AI-driven narrative generation is a benefit or a detriment to humanity, this paper delves into the evolution of AI storytelling, examines the capabilities and limitations of large language models like ChatGPT, even under their impressive fluency, and further explores the implications for human creativity and intellectual diversity. While AI storytelling tools have undoubtedly revolutionised content generation, this paper argues that they do not inherently erode human originality and uniqueness and more so cannot authentically replicate the distinctiveness of human thinking. Instead, with conscientious implementation, AI writing technologies may serve as powerful complementary tools that can enhance human creativity, expand the diversity of voices and perspectives, provide more widespread access to the means of storytelling and personal expression, and optimise our human literary activities in a manner that elevates rather than erodes the uniqueness of human literary work when used thoughtfully and ethically.
