The incredible James SA Corey is (are?) at it again with their excellent novella Livesuit. There's one moment that's just so perfect I needed to tell someone about it. Turns out that someone is you!

Great story, great game ๐Ÿ˜

โ€œHey, Iโ€™m Coray. I work at Meta. This looks really cool.โ€

McCallum and his devs thought it was B.S. But Seifert gave a legit Meta email...and 11 months later, after a rigorous greenlighting process, they had a deal."

โ€œOrganicโ€ writing not created using AI will always be the most popular type of storytelling, even as AI becomes more advanced. Humans are drawn to *intention* in their art, and knowing that something was created by an averaging tool removes much of the appeal, even if on a barely conscious level.
