I doubt many people here do not know this but: it is a machine for writing things that are pleasing to the interlocutor, and conform to their expectations ie are plausible. It doesn’t *know* it’s lying so it can’t stop.
This is a good example:

I’ve discovered the secret to a productive writing day is actually just noise cancelling headphones. Piano music seems to shut up my brain enough to actually write yayyyy.

One of my favourite short stories ever❤️
Today's throwback story is Mr. Death by Alix E. Harrow at Apex Magazine (2021)
This one is one of those that turns the story on its head. Also, it makes me cry.

I’ve ferried two hundred and twenty-one souls across the river of death, and I can already tell my two-hundred-and-twenty-second is going to be a real shitkicker.

So proud of my friend @drjennymorris.bsky.social and her debut book's publication, AN ETHICAL GUIDE TO MURDER!!!!
In Amsterdam years ago she'd ask us questions in queues for food like "what would it take for you to randomly kill the guy in front of us?"
This book has been a long time coming.
