Let us start here to set the scene.
If one stands in Waterstones appealing to people who can only read short words written in big print, then is it any wonder that intelligent people will make mincemeat of you? Of course not.
Jack Dart
‘Look for the AI section; it’s probably there.’
Stewart Osborne
“Why isn’t an allegedly non-fiction paperback included in this display of fiction hardbacks?”
“Is this your first time in bookshop?”
Joey Palmer
“Hello, I know you may think that as a reform voter I am illiterate, but actually I would very much like to read Matt Goodwin’s new AI-written book, ‘Mein Kampf for Dummies.'”
Caroline Ni Chinneide
“No thanks, I can read ChatGPT-generated slop off my own phone without spending money.”
Phill Smith
“Does someone want to tell him he’s standing by the hardback section, so he probably won’t find his paperback there?”
Paul Boland
“I’m surprised you didn’t just ask ChatGPT.”
Two Mugs, A Brew, And Some Geese
“I applaud any company that takes a stand against AI slop.”
John John
“Try looking in the fiction section”.
Stewart Osborne
“…Remember the old adage: never interrupt your enemy when he is making himself look like a massive bellend”.
Kevin Michael McEvoy
“1- it isn’t the number 1 paperback
2 – Waterstones don’t put books written by AI on shelves
3- You are standing in the hardback section”.
Matthew Smith
“The last time I checked, Waterstones doesn’t sell toilet paper.”
Julia Gti
“It reminds me of that JR Hartley advert.”
Richard Briant
“I’m sure they prefer books written by humans.”
James McRobert-Thompson
“I smell a pulping coming along.”
And so it continues into infinity…
