I'm taking a digital literary studies course, and we've been talking about how much an author's identity and intentions should matter when we're interpreting something they created.

This made me wonder about AI. If you read a book, really liked it, and found your own meaning in it, but then found out it was written by AI, would that change your opinion of the book? The actual words haven't changed, so should your interpretation of them change just because you found out who (or what) created them?

I personally would feel different about it, but I'm curious what other people think because I feel like there's a pretty big difference between how we react to something when we don't know anything about its creator and how we react once we do.
