I wrote a story about GPT-3 writing a story about me writing about GPT3

In plain words

This is a creative writing project that explores recursive storytelling through AI. Published in June 2022, it documents a narrative where GPT-3 writes a story about the author writing about GPT-3, creating nested layers of authorship. The project examines the relationship between human creativity and AI-generated text by turning the writing process itself into the subject matter. It is designed for anyone interested in experimental literature, AI capabilities, and the boundaries between human and machine-generated content.

"Halfway through," said Charlie, staring at the largely blank Markdown file for week 26 of his 52 week short story writing challenge. "I wonder if I've written a good one yet?" He thought about checking his Cloudflare web analytics, but stopped himself. Nothing good could be found there. Besides, he was supposed to be writing. He'd gotten a bit of traction with a few sci-fi-ish stories on Hacker News, which gave him a decent bump in page views -- readers , he corrected himself -- but nothing to write home about. Not yet, at least. Ray Bradbury did say it might take until #52 for a good one to pop out. Instead of writing anything, anything at all, Charlie got up to re-microwave his third cup…from f52.charlieharrington.com

  A friend and I spent 6 years making a simulation game, finally released▲1,157

  I've seen some interests in (simulation) video games here on HN so I thought I'd share a short version of our story. More than 6 years ago, me and my friend from university were playing around with an idea of making a game we always wanted to play. We worked on it on weekends but the progress was quite slow, especially due to so many dead ends and wasted effort. Eventually however, we solidified our direction and decided to take the risk to resign from our well paid SWE jobs and work on it full time. It took more than a year but yesterday we have finally released it on Steam:…
