AI Novel Tops Charts, Sparking Web3 Authorship Debate
An AI-generated novel has reached the top of Japan's Kakuyomu platform, raising critical questions about AI's role in creative industries. The novel, utilizing AI to produce 100,000 kanji daily, exploited the platform's algorithm, prompting concerns among human authors about visibility and fair compensation.
This situation highlights the need for Web3 solutions like NFTs to guarantee provenance and authenticity, and smart contracts for automated royalty distribution. Decentralized platforms governed by DAOs could also establish standards for AI content and protect human artistry.
The incident underscores the potential for blockchain technology to safeguard authorship, intellectual property, and fair economic models in the age of AI.
