Hugh Howey & DeepSeek R1: The Algorithm that Learned to Listen

One of my favorite science fiction authors, Hugh Howey, has published a book of discussions with DeepSeek R1.

When DeepSeek was released to the public, I gave it a test I've given other AIs. The results were astounding. What emerged was a conversation — prompt and poetry — that felt different from anything I'd played with before. The Algorithm that Learned to Listen contains over two dozen poems written entirely by AI. Poems profound, lyrical, and deeply moving that explore what it means to exist, to create, and to connect in a world where the line between human and machine is increasingly blurred.
