Probably would have had to use carrier pigeons instead, which would have been messy and inconvenient.

Today we have Strategic Vision. Yesterday,
We had financial imperatives. And tomorrow morning,
We shall have what to do after firing. But today,

Spent a bit of time looking up a political philosopher called ‘Jonathan Hovercraft’ today, only to eventually figure out that this was a copy-editor’s (or auto-correct’s) miscorrection of ‘Jonathan Havercroft’.

I built an AI model that writes haunting sci-fi novels in which a vast and unknowable alien other produces seemingly-real replicas of your lost loved ones, just as you remember them but also hollow, since we cannot know the alien other if we do not know ourselves. I call the model 'Stanislaw LLM'
