I talked about this at ACLA recently—with @mmvty, on @GabrielHankins' great panel, "AI and/as Form"—but I've been making progress on examining "formal stuckness" in AI-generated texts. For some reason, when generating poems, LLMs *love* to rhyme, even when you tell them not to!

The Discovery Engine on @early_print is an amazing tool. Even though Cavendish insisted that Blazing World was not like "the French man's World in the Moon," Cyrano's Comical History shows up as similar in unique word use (empress, animal, world) AND almost alike in XML tags

A Sino-Tibetan concertina-folded book, printed in Beijing in 1410, containing Sanskrit dhāranīs and illustrations of protective mantra-diagrams and deities, woodblock-printed in bright red ink on heavy white paper.
