Abstract
Avances recientes en la Inteligencia Artificial (IA) Generativa han hecho la producción de ficción literaria accesible a muchos usuarios, facilitando la creación individualizada de ficción para consumo personal. Este artículo examina las implicaciones individuales y culturales de la ficción asistida por IA en un marco multidisciplinario. Basados en un método de triangulación, el estudio se enfoca en cinco dinámicas que probablemente serán afectadas por la ficción generada con IA: democratización, personalización y filtros burbuja, conexión y soledad, creatividad, y los efectos en los escritores profesionales. Si bien la ficción generada por AI posee un gran potencial democratizador al reducir las barreras de ingreso a la producción literaria y facilitando el aprendizaje personalizado, regulación emocional y auto-reflexión, también presenta preocupaciones con respecto a la fragmentación cultural y el refuerzo de filtros burbuja individuales. Adicionalmente, la ficción personalizada puede reestructurar nuestras experiencias de empatía y conectividad, potencialmente sustituyendo las interacciones sociales con interacciones parasociales o auto-referenciales. Finalmente, el artículo considera el status ambiguo de la creatividad en la escritura asistida por IA y los desafíos que presenta a las reglas de autoría y derechos de autor profesionales. En resumen, los resultados sugieren que la ficción generada con IA no constituye una fuerza puramente emancipatoria ni una fuerza puramente destructiva; es mejor decir que su impacto en la sociedad depende de cómo estas tecnologías sean integradas, reguladas y enseñadas en contextos educacionales y culturales.
