Pastiche is not the same as plagiarism.
I conceed that the quirky phrase 'If this gets any more cloying, I think I'll vomit,' is easy to identify. But how many stories had to be churned out to get that phrase? And would it have done that if you didn't ask for it to write as David Eddings?
Don't get me wrong. I don't want AI to take over writing. I understand that it will not generate unique or original works. I just think the way that it is repeatedly described here whenever somebody types the letters A and I next to each other is too much.
