I Forced an AI Bot to Write a Warrior Cats Book
If you know me, then you probably know that one of my biggest obsessions through elementary and middle school was the warrior cats book series by Erin Hunter. Part of the reason that I fell in love with this book series and the warrior cats universe is how much content there is to get through— with over 100 main-series books, novellas, and super-editions combined, there was a never-ending flow of content for little me to consume. I used to read every single new book as soon as it came out, and even though I haven’t been keeping up as closely since graduating middle school, the series still holds a very…

(I’m actually pretty close to finishing off my bachelor’s degree, which is crazy to think about, assuming I can get through the last couple of classes, that is.) Even though there…

Ten Books I Read This Month
Whenever I get asked the question “what do you like to do for fun?” reading is always one of the hobbies I list first— I think I actually wrote one of my MIT application essays on how much I liked books— but this past semester I spent the majority of my time reading textbooks and pset problems and articles on dummies.com and not much else. Tragically so, because reading was a huge part of my life back in high school, but since starting college and no longer having access to the neighbourhood library that I used to frequent I’ve been reading a lot less than I used to. So as…
