Composing grant winning Indian fiction with ChatGPT

Can an aspiring author successfully pitch an idea for a novel that would appeal to an audience of English-speaking Indians with the assistance of ChatGPT? Two distributing pioneers share their criticism.

From scribbled pages, how does a book become a professionally packaged novel supported by a major publisher, distributed worldwide in a variety of formats and languages, or even made into a movie?

A key stage in the conventional distributing process is composing a question letter to a scholarly specialist who will assist the creator with fighting the most ideal agreement from a distributer. Authors are required to send an introductory email outlining their manuscript's plot, synopsis, genre, word count, and intended audience in order to begin this relationship. To sweeten the deal, the author may also extol their own accomplishments. In a nutshell, a query letter is where the book meets the industry, demonstrating to it that the project will be a commercial and creative success.

We asked ChatGPT to come up with an idea for an award-winning Indian literary novel, create a plot for it, and write a query letter for this article. Then, at that point, we asked two distributing industry pioneers to choose if the following Booker Prize would be our own.

ChatGPT was first provoked to create a plot for a "scholarly fiction novel that would engage metropolitan, privileged Indian perusers in metropolitan urban communities" to perceive how the chatbot would decipher this questionable brief ChatGPT eventually pitched an idea for a novel titled "The Palace of Illusions," which would tell the Mahabharata from Panchaali's perspective.

Nonetheless, there was one issue. Perusers of Indian writing in English would know that 'The Royal residence of Deceptions' is a 2008 novel by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni,, which portrays the occasions of the Mahabharata through the eyes of Draupadi (Panchaali).

At the point when informed that the thought previously existed, ChatGPT apologized and on second thought presented a question letter for 'The City of Mysteries,' a Mumbai-based contemporary novel portraying the narrative of writer Aria and rising tech star Rohan who experience passionate feelings for while battling to adapt to family requests and limitations. The chatbot rehashed its line about "high society Indians.

As far as concerns us, we thought there were two significant dangers for an essayist attempting to track down an award winning book thought with ChatGPT. First, the possibility of accidental plagiarism caused by human or machine ignorance. Second, the chatbot's underlying failure to refine a brief entered by the essayist — taking the issue back to the human's composing abilities.

"It is perfect, I'm not saying it is waste. Mr. Padmanabhan stated, "I wouldn't have known that it is an AI-generated plot if you hadn't told me."

"In the event that I just got one email unexpectedly, I could miss it being PC produced, however assuming you saw the two messages that you sent, they have a similar construction, figuratively speaking," he noticed.
