Interesting, the first poem about love is an encyclopedia of cliche and therefore hideous poetry as are most of the rest, yet, the ode in the style of Keats has much more merit---interesting perspectives.

I've been thinking: If I should wish to include this sonnet in my new book, © Su's Little Songs 2023, who does the copyright belong to? Do I credit you and your blog (permission hereby requested, please), or ChatGPT? I think that it would make a fine example of man versus machine.

It would appear to be me with the copyright, but as there is currently no case law, I would suggest crediting me with the idea and ChatGPT with the output as that is what actually occurred. Permission granted.

The Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 was of course drafted before these judgments, and does deal with computer-generated works. If there is no human author, section 9 says that for computer-generated works, “the author shall be taken to be the person by whom the arrangements necessary for the creation of the work are undertaken”.

Thank you, Roy. (Biiiiiig smile!) Yes, sonnets may have about any rhyme scheme you wish. Not only the Shakespearian one that we have become used to. I have now included the rhyme scheme in my Keats Sonnet, When the New Year Looms, for ease of reference. BTW It was a pleasure to read a blog with meat on it. Regards, Suzette

It appears to summarize the poem in the final couplet in the style of a Shakespearean sonnet, but it is definitely a Fourteener, which predates Keats. I had to smile at the reference to "Beauty" in line one. I have for years been plagued by a wrong number on my cellphone where SMSs are addressed to "Beauty" (a common name in this country).

Thanks, Suzette. One additional thing I noticed is there did not appear (at least to me) a volta in line 8.

Interesting results, Roy. I notice that in the elegy it uses the now PC generic "they". Regarding Keats: You might have refined your request as a sonnet in the style of John Keats. I echo his sentiments as per his sonnet: On a Sonnet. (You obviously have a paid monthly subscription. The free version is oversubscribed at present and access is limited.) I would love to see what AI will come up with. In the meantime, I will plod on and rely on the ever-aging grey matter to write samples to illustrate the styles of the poets I enjoy. My personal reason for penning poetry is not the end product, but the process - it takes my mind off many things, such as the worrying political situation, climate change, the woke movements, etc. Have a great day. Regards, Suzette

I had it write a sonnet in the style of John Keats. See above. It’s actually a series of couplets, but still pretty good.

I have the free version of ChatGPT. I guess I got in before it was too late.
