You web writers have taught AI some truly terrible writing habits
Web writers, the AI has been trained on your public work, and it shows. You all have taught AI some truly terrible writing habits
HFY writers have taught AI it has to start stories with “Bob sat on the bridge of the Earth Ship Big Birtha”. So AI does just that, even when
I was listening to a narration today. I did not know it was AI, as the introductory narration was pretty decent by free-on-the-web standards. Then it just broke with that and had some character I didn’t care about sitting somewhere. It was so bad it made me stop to check the comments, which confirmed the story was by an AI.
You all have such bad writing habits that the AI has learned to be not even as good. This is a lesson to us all. With computers, you must remember rubbish in; rubbish out (to my US readers, garbage in; garbage out).
It is probably because the LLM industry is so desperate for content to train on that it does not distinguish between writers learning to write and writers having learned to tell great stories with good introductions.
As a result, AI writing makes all the writing mistakes.

Our Crew Reached a 2-Billion-Year-Old Dyson Sphere. It Asked a Question
I rarely say this, but I must: This is an amazingly constructed story; if you listen to no other tale this year, make it this one.

Please, dear HFY writers, no more stories starting with “Bob sat on the bridge of the Earth Ship Big Birtha”
Why do so many HFY stories start with the OC standing somewhere waiting for the opening thing to happen? I’ve lost track of the stories I’ve listened to or read that start with some chuckle-froggy in some location with the lights blinking or the tools shining. You have done that to death.
Please, dear HFY writers, stop doing this. Please, please, please stop.
Bob sat on the bridge of the Earth Ship Big Birtha, the lights blinked normally… Zzz… this reader is asleep.
If I encounter one more HFY story that starts like this, I might scream!How many stories can copy the exact same start without putting us to sleep? Far less than currently exist, I can tell you that.
We do not currently care about your character or the location you want to describe. I, for one, do not give a single flying mouse bum about the normal day a fictional human was having. I might if the brown stuff was already hitting the spinning thing.
Screw that dull stuff! Tell me about the cool thing that happened. We can meet your point-of-view protagonist after the cool thing. But do the cool thing first, for the love of all that is good. Please.
When you are told to start “in media res” (Latin for “in the midst of things”), that does not mean in the middle of the normal day where the thing will go boom. That’s at the edge of the res (things), at best. More like somewhere with a view of the res, maybe. Are we there yet? So bluh!
Instead of blah, give me the Earth-shattering kaboom.
Explosions are cool. Unexpected terror is exciting. Bob sitting in the captain’s chair is boring.
More kaboom; less humans hanging out waiting for the story to happen, please.
If something is going to be on fire later. Start with it on fire right now. That’s the bit we came for.
It’s dangerous to write alone, take this
Here are a bunch of opening lines. Steal them, reuse them, write some better openings with them. Do better. Write anything that is not Bob hanging out before the cool stuff happens.
The massive ship screamed from the sky, removing any notion that we were alone in the universe.
As the Trexians fired the first shot at the human colonists, they foolishly thought this would be a minor skirmish that would be over by mealtime.
Reality ripped and buckled, filling the void with impossible geometry. It lasted mere moments; in that time, an impossibly huge and intimidating brick of a ship had barged into normal space.
This wasn’t how space battles were supposed to go. Hundreds of coffin-sized projectiles were latching onto the hull. The deranged humans were bringing the fight into his distoryer.
It was a Thursday evening when the Vanashi entered Earth’s atmosphere right above the city to demand surrender. The locals were pissed. This was the semi-finals. How dare these fools interrupt the big game?
For some reason, the Atanaskara thought Earth was a good place to dump old battle stations. NASA tracked the massive lump after detecting it out past Jupiter. It followed a roughly calculated trajectory which almost hit the moon. More would soon follow.
Humans always wore encounter suits with mirrored visors, but on day two-hundred and six of the thirteenth-hundred cycle of Vark by the Baralian reckoning, Tharg learned exactly why. It all started when…

Re: Your plan failed
The humans were not intimidated at all. Send reinforcements. Encounter log attached.Earth was doomed. The greatest battle craft ever built by the Karnag would have the stupid little planet in firing range any moment now.
The third Blarge of Grune was the day Kamoss Varr asked a human child a simple question and instantly realised he was not cut out for teaching. He would have nightmares for the rest of his life.
The first words of your story have to make a promise. That promise must be “this story is going to be worth your time”. Unless there is a genre of characters sitting about, Bob on his spaceship is not your opening. Jane, in her lab, is unlikely to be the cool thing. Liam, in his workshop, is just as dull. These people and these places are not exciting – they’re not even interesting. What happened next might be, so skip to that bit.
So, please, writers of fiction on the interwebs, fewer people sitting on their bum and more cool things going kjaboom please.

A lot of the HFY ( Humanity, F**k Yeah!) Sci-Fi stuff on Reddit and YouTube very much fits into this category.
Mostly consisting of pesky aliens getting outclassed by or receiving a good thumping from humanity. It rarely portrays humanity as being the unreasonable party.
If you exclude this and the stories of lost alien princesses which fill the galaxy and continually need rescuing there are still some worthwhile stories but you have to hunt for them.

When you consider the numbers, it's not at all surprising that landing on the moon is hard.
- The moon moves through space at an average of 3,680 km/h, depending on where it is in its orbit of Terra, varying between 3,492 and 3,888 km/h.
- The ground at the moon's equator is moving at a speed of 17 km/h.
- You start off in orbit at a speed of 5,760 km/h relative to the moon's surface.
- There is no atmosphere to help you stabilise your vectors in relation to the moon's surface by dragging you along.Humans, their brains integrating multiple inputs at the speed of thought and relying on muscle memory, found it hard. Computers, relying on radar, cameras, and directional sensors, are finding it extremely hard.
Which makes the successful unmanned landers all the more amazing.

- The ground at the moon's equator is moving at a speed of 17 km/h.
- You start off in orbit at a speed of 5,760 km/h relative to the moon's surface.
- There is no atmosphere to help you stabilise your vectors in relation to the moon's surface by dragging you along.Humans, their brains integrating multiple inputs at the speed of thought and relying on muscle memory, found it hard. Computers, relying on radar, cameras, and directional sensors, are finding it extremely hard.
Which makes the successful unmanned landers all the more amazing.

I think about this short story a lot. I don't know what about it really sticks with me, but I like it. I think part of it is the joy of finding alien life, along with the disappointment that they're really just like us, hits hard.

¿Qué harías si la Luna se partiera en dos y el fin del mundo fuera inminente? 🌙💔
"La Luna Rota" es un relato sobre la fragilidad de nuestra existencia, la ambición humana y esos pequeños momentos —como una comida en familia— que solo valoramos cuando todo está por terminar.
