The reason why AI can't write good fiction

Good fictional scenes are not created, but discovered by the writer.
All works of fiction are more or less haphazzardly assembled, by combining many randomly imagined scenes that could stand by themselves.
Like real life, the outline of a story matters much less than the quality of its randomly combined scenes.
And each of those scenes required feelings to generate.

If you can recognize a good scene, you could have created it. But for that, you need to have feelings.
Perhaps they could train AI to recognize such feelings, by giving it lists of dramatic scenes in all categories.
If that scheme works, then AI will also have been trained to actually have feelings . . .
