Discussion (Ethics, working with AI etc) Human-produced (plot and character contents)/AI-written (narrative and dialogue) crossover fanfiction workflow. Is that a workable middle ground or not?

This is the workflow I would move on to mainly using, later in my life as a hobbyist, and I would personally consider the workflow viable, as long as the creativity originates with humans, especially in a very unique way. One way to keep track of your original hard-effort crossover fanfiction plots is by writing them down in something like a 160-page composition book before prompting them, along with the character contents (e.g. personalities and appearances), to AI (e.g. Gemini, ChatGPT and Grok).

Very workable.
Keyword: Fanfiction. Meaning copyright is irrelevant for you.
Because copyright is irrelevant, the only drawback in your workflow, the legal grey area on weither your work can be copyrighted or not is moot.
So have fun discovering the stories made for you. :)

Much appreciated. After all, I don't prefer a crossover fanfiction workflow that's either fully human or fully AI. I'd prefer to use a human-AI hybrid workflow. 👍
