Since many of my friends have been amusing themselves asking AI to review their stories, I decided to do the same for a couple of my own stories over at Chat.OpenAI<\/a>, starting with my recent Lightspeed Magazine story<\/a> “A Man Walks Into a Bar: In Which More Than Four Decades After My Father\u2019s Reluctant Night of Darts on West 54th Street I Finally Understand What Needs to Be Done.”<\/p>\n

Here’s what the AI had to say —<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Not only is that not really what the story’s about — the write-up didn’t even mention Donald Trump’s role in it! How could an AI miss that<\/em>?<\/p>\n

I also asked it to review my recent Apex Magazine story<\/a> “Learning to Accept What’s to Come,” and it thought my protagonists were an elderly couple named Nora and Jerry dealing with their morality, rather than two robots named BR@X15 and CR81321M wandering a post-apocalyptic future.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So that one’s completely off base. Very strange.<\/p>\n

I guess AI isn’t yet ready for prime time. At least not when it comes to small fish such as me. (And I suppose “not ready for prime time” isn’t an apt metaphor anymore. Does anyone really care about prime time in our time-shifting world?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
