Something else I noticed, the lack of descriptors in the AI’s story (especially color, which was odd). The color gray is spelled “grey” in the author’s story which is interesting. Although it’s not wrong, “gray” is the more common spelling (at least here in the states). I wonder if the AI would’ve spelled it differently.

Great observation! Not sure if ChatGPT is set to follow local convention or uses US spelling. As for me, I intentionally used British spelling for Priya's writing, and US for Nancy's, since those were their respective backgrounds. Thanks for taking the time to read and reflect on these!

I prefer “grey” myself but my spellcheck despises it, initiating an ugly angry red squiggly line every time.

Honestly, it didn’t take that long for me. A few differences I noticed right off the bat. The human story was much more varied in sentence structure and wording. In contrast, the AI story felt incredibly bare and generic. I’ve always said I don’t believe AI will ever match human instinct and emotion. We’re just too complicated and unpredictable to emulate perfectly. That was a fun exercise, thanks for sharing!
