🤖🖋️ An exciting thing last year, one of my #NaNoGenMo works was published in "Output: an Anthology of Computer-Generated Text 1953-2023"!

https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262549813/output/

Dear Santa is an epistemological novel sourced from tweets containing "I want". (Not in the book, one output is from a certain election result day in Nov 2016, capturing a grimly familiar mood: https://github.com/NaNoGenMo/2016/issues/138)

It's a fascinating book with a wide range of pre-LLM works by many brilliant folk, I'm proud to share the same pages.
