The fraudulent AI novel arrived! I’m resolved to document its telltale stylistic tics out of personal interest and curiosity. I’m not going to bother with em dashes or the rule of 3 - I’m trying to get more complete insight into how LLM fiction differs from human fiction

This is a weird reductive take. JK Rowling is actively pursuing the denigration of trans people through the funding she gets from Harry Potter. Someone point me to C.S Lewis and Tolkien's trusts that fund anti-queer hate? Not saying they can't be criticised. There is difference.
Ian Harber@ianharber

Cancelling Harry Potter because of Rowling but remaking/doing spin offs of Narnia and LOTR despite Lewis and Tolkien being two of the most prominent Christian figures of the last century who undoubtedly share Rowling’s views she’s been cancelled for. Make it make sense.
