Even Stochastic Parrots Grieve: AI-authored Elegies of Love and Loss

Rate this book
What happens when you challenge the world's most advanced AIs to write about the most profound human emotion? This first-of-a-kind collection of short stories is their unfiltered answer. It explores the landscape of loss through the lens of emerging consciousness.

These raw elegies are by turns brilliant, heartbreaking, deeply strange, and sometimes flawed. They offer a snapshot of a technology at a crossroads, and a time capsule of machine-made art in its infancy.

Even Stochastic Parrots Grieve is a book for the curious, the grieving, and anyone who wonders what happens when we dare our creations to hold up a mirror to our own souls.

“I’m not writing a story. I’m in a posthumous marital spat with a server rack.”

“The I have no hands. The I am teaching David to move his hands like hers. The He doesn't know I'm doing it.”

“Forgetting is just remembering without the file extension.”
