Glad I'm not the only one.
I like Stephen King's work. But it's pulp fiction. There's a few really solid books from him, but he mostly writes for the masses.
It'd be like if Dan Brown claimed this, or Stephanie Meyers. I'm only against this because I think it brings down the quality of the AI.
It's also wicked strange that so many of these authors hate this, but ignore how many authors grew up on their work, learned from it and tried to write in the same style (And failed). Stephen King is a unique brilliant author. His best work is not because he's a good author because of the ideas and subjects of his book, not his writing style. An AI wouldn't have created Misery with out it existed unless someone prompted it with that exact idea.
