Abstract
This study investigates the potential of elliptical sentences as textual markers of empathy to distinguish between human-written and AI-generated fiction. The research addresses how empathy – a key feature of human communication – can be linguistically encoded and whether AI can emulate this effect. Using a comparative case study methodology, the analysis examines the use of elliptical constructions in emotionally resonant literary texts, contrasting human and AI outputs. Findings indicate that while human authors employ ellipsis effectively to evoke empathy, AI requires iterative refinement to approximate similar effects. Nonetheless, with guided prompting, AI shows emerging capabilities in reproducing empathic stylistic patterns. The study highlights the linguistic mechanisms of empathy, and further studies in this field will contribute to the evolving discourse on AI‘s potential to bridge the communicative gap between human and machine-generated texts.
