Suspicious phrases

 

Networks Enlist A.I. Script Generator to Save the Television Industry

A.I. is not merely a "plagiarism machine."

It is capable of generating near-original works of popular schlock, unenjoyable prestige drama, and more ...

Do you like the phrase "near-original" writing?

It reminds me of the word "natural" on a pack of Maple Leaf premium hotdogs.

You know? Nature kind of hot dogs. 

The hotdogs that are born in the wild. 

Hot dogs that run free.

Maple Leaf Foods catches them with nets.

Like butterflies.

I bet the hotdogs we buy are "near original"--kinda like fiddlehead greens or peaches.

They're delicious. Don't read the package.


The Writers Strike continues and entertainment production is largely halted in North America.
