They say it can increase your productivity, and hot damn does that man need it. LLMs work best when manipulating input text along with contextual content. That sounds almost exactly like partially-edited manuscript and conceptual thought doodles plus several existing storyline books.

Admit it, if he dies before finishing, and someone publishes the result of such an AI output, you would read it. So he might as well get some AI help to finish it “himself”, sooner, right?

Actually I think the problem is that he cares way too much. He has written himself too many sprawling storylines that all need to come back together in a satisfying convergence, which is very difficult. The further he gets in the story, the harder it becomes to continue. He’s also a perfectionist.

He’s a bit of a jerk for chronic underestimation of what it will take him to finish anything, and possibly for taking on other projects that further delay work on his magnum opus. But I understand procrastinating one important task by throwing yourself into work on different tasks.

How great would it be though to just not converge everything and have the story end up in a horrid, stinky mess. You know, like the actual War of the Roses that inspired the lot, and completely unlike the stupid final season.

After all, who has a better story than Wym the Stable Boy, long may he reign?
