#Rejtő Jenő was a #hungarian #writer probably being one of those with the greatest openings of their #novels. The most famous:

- Sir, I have come for my knife!
- Where did you leave it?
- In some sailor's possession.
- What kind of knife was it?
- Steel. Narrow blade, slightly curved. Haven't you seen it?
- Now, now... Slowly, please... What was the handle like?
- Shell.
- In how many pieces?
- It was made in one piece.
- Then there's no need to worry! I have the knife!
- Where?
- In my back.

Two things here: First, good luck to all the publishers and agents who will face a torrent of this glossy, incomprehensible shit over the next few years.

Second: For real creators, this will add to the growing swamp of unfiltered shit that new books find themselves in online. The sheer quantities that these can be produced in will make real books even harder to find.

Twitter: ‘AI tech is using artists’ online work to train itself to mimic those artist’s styles!’

Me, putting my face in my hands. ‘Well, at least I’ll still be able to get writing work.’

Twitter: ‘Let’s all have conversations with this AI so we can teach it how to replicate expressionate writing!’
