I've been thinking a lot about what makes automated style generation – for things like writing,art,or even music – actually "good." It's easy to say something is technically proficient, but "good taste" seems much more subjective. Is it simply mimicking existing popular styles flawlessly? Or does true quality lie in novelty and pushing boundaries, even if it deviates from established norms?
For example, a programme might generate a technically perfect sonnet, but if it lacks emotional resonance or originality, is it really "good"? On the other hand, an AI generated artwork might be visually striking and unconventional, but also clashing or unpleasant. Where's the sweet spot?
ultimately, I wonder if we're even asking the right question. Maybe "good taste" in this context is less about objective quality and more about how well the generated style serves a specific purpose or resonates with a particular audience. Looking forward to hearing yoru thoughts on this.
