Abstract--Recent advances in large language models have created new opportunities for stylometry, the study of writing styles and authorship. Two challenges, however, remain central: training generative models when no paired data exist, and evaluating stylistic text without relying only on human judgment. In this work, we present a framework for both generating and evaluating sentences in the style of 19th-century novelists. Large language models are fine-tuned with minimal, single-token prompts to produce text in the voices of authors such as Dickens, Austen, Twain, Alcott, and Melville. T o assess these generative models, we employ a transformer-based detector trained on authentic sentences, using it both as a classifier and as a tool for stylistic explanation. We complement this with syntactic comparisons and explainable AI methods, including attention-based and gradient-based analyses, to identify the linguistic cues that drive stylistic imitation. Our findings show that the generated text reflects the authors' distinctive patterns and that AI-based evaluation offers a reliable alternative to human assessment. All artifacts of this work are published online. The ability to recognize and reproduce an author's writing style has long fascinated both literary scholars and computer scientists. Stylometry, the quantitative study of writing style, rests on the idea that every author leaves behind unconscious patterns in vocabulary, syntax, and rhythm [2, 3]. These patterns have been analyzed for centuries in questions of disputed authorship, the study of literary traditions, and more recently in applications such as security and forensics [4].

Scientists claim they have had the first one-on-one conversation with a whale. The team from the SETI Institute and the University of California'spoke' with a 38-year-old humpback whale, named Twain, off the coast of Alaska. They used an underwater microphone to send out whale calls, 'whup/throp' sounds, and received 36 responses that seemed like Twain was actively engaged in a communicative exchange. AI-powered algorithms analyzed the replies, revealing Twain may have shared a greeting call with the team on a boat in the Pacific Ocean. While speaking to a different species has never been done in this manner, researchers are using the experience to hopefully one day converse with extraterrestrial life.

In a narrow, windowless room at the University of Southern California, a group of graduate students is workshopping a short story. Its author is silent as her classmates deliver gentle feedback. Some suggest minor improvements of pacing, setting, and tone. One student would appreciate a more robust description of the protagonist's emotions, but enjoys the sparseness, too. "I like this version," another adds.

A long time ago, Mark Twain wrote a note to a friend in which he apologized for not having time to write a shorter letter. In other words, Twain wished he'd had more time to think deeply and craft his message more succinctly. Life was slower back then – automation was just a glint in a futurist's eye. In the digital age, my sentiment is along the same vein, but different: I'm sorry I didn't have time to write you an even more thoughtful and insightful blog that adds more value to you as a reader. Time is always short, so if I'd had a digital assistant to do my research for me, I could have written a better, more insightful blog in less time.

"A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on." That's a famous quote often attributed to Mark Twain. Except that, like a lot of quotes attributed to Twain, he never said it or wrote it. It's also been attributed to Winston Churchill, but he didn't come up with it either. The same idea in different words also has been credited to Jonathan Swift, C. H. Spurgeon, Thomas Franklin, a Chinese proverb, an Arab proverb, and other sources.

The guitarist of the band'Lightningfan' Wang Hongbin (C) creates lightning with a Tesla Coil in a village outside of Fuzhou in China's Fujian province in June 2013. The Tesla Coil invented by Nikola Tesla in 1891 is a transformer that produces vast amounts of voltage at high frequencies that creates long bolts of electricity like lightning. Nikola Tesla was one of America's greatest inventors and carries a mystique unlike any other immigrant to the United States. Before he became the name of a car company and a character in modern science fiction novels, Nikola Tesla immigrated to the United States and turned into an inventor extraordinaire. Tesla is credited with many important innovations and his ideas are still talked about today.

To them that had had, more would be given (Lodge 1986, p. 172). "Morris read through the letter. Was it a shade too fulsome? No, that was another law of academic life: it is impossible to be excessive in the flattery of one's peers." There we met Morris That book was made by Mr. Mark I read these lines as a new truth."
