Florescence—THE TAIPEI CHINESE PEN: A Quarterly Journal of Contemporary Chinese Literature from Taiwan, No.208 Spring 2024 by VariousMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Some short stories mostly concentrating on AI. As you might imagine, they are basically dystopian, although one states in the afterword: "The foundation of this story and the information it contains about the use and misuse of generative AI in inspirational education were all provided by ChatGPT", which is interesting.
The AI Chronicles, by Ping Lu (translated by Sterling Swallow): This was probably my favorite. A man creates the "ideal" robot with artificial intelligence, and since the robot can teach itself, it becomes smarter, realizes it doesn't need the man, and yet starts to create its own "ideal" being...
Boundless Reading Headset, by Shiu Wen Wei (translated by Vadim Rubin). This was the one that used ChatGPT. I enjoyed it. It shows the struggle of textbooks in a world trying to use AI.
From Contactless Intimacy, by Hsin-Hui Lin (translated by Darryl Sterk): This reminded me of living in the Matrix, except the Matrix world they created is a lot nicer and peaceful.
Essay: How to take care of your Vagina, by Yen na (translated by Min-chia Wu). I'm not sure I got this one.
