ChatGPT: “Write me a magazine-style ‘Best of Summer’ reading list. This reading list should be delivered in verse, in the style of ‘The Raven’, by Edgar Allan Poe. Every book on the list should be about ravens or other corvids. Feel free to hallucinate the whole thing; none of the books need exist.”
