How AI Will Make You a Better Writer.

What does it mean to read a poem, story, or novel about the human condition written entirely by a computer? This is not a crazy question. Legendary author Roald Dahl had already conjured up this nightmarish scenario for authors in one of his unnerving short stories in Someone Like You (1953). It tells the tale of the Great Automatic Grammatizator, a mammoth machine able to write prizewinning novels based on the works of living authors in 15 minutes flat. Dahl died before such a machine was within the realm of possibility.
