#57: Midnight Lorry

The Cru tackle two new challenges in this episode: writing with music as the prompt and writing alongside an Artificial Intelligence.  The prompt this week is the song Midnight Lorry by Dispatch, one of WebEater's favorite tunes. We don't play the song in the episode--Dispatch's lawyers could probably run circles around ours, if they could find them-- so be sure to follow the link and listed to the song before writing along.  We take a look at the work of Chat GPT, a program offered by OpenAI that is capable of writing fiction. To what extent does it succeed in that endeavor?  Tune in to find out. Stories this week feature a meet-cute/murder tale; a chance meeting in a bar; a cross-country roadtrip; and an impromptu poem.Like this weeks episode and wish you could read as well as listen?
