"Bot or Not?  Ten poems to read - can you distinguish those created by AI from the real-world poets?

The fabulous Royal Society of Edinburgh are in week 2 of their Curious festival with "Bot or not?".  You don't need to attend to take the poetry quiz though.

    "Eternal Echoes

In the glow of screens,
we text in fragments,
emojis replacing words,
a digital shorthand
for everything we feel but can’t articulate.

Scrolling through endless feeds,
life distilled into snapshots,
we search for meaning
in likes and comments,
validation through pixels.

This one is AI generated!"

    "A Sonnet upon Sonnets

Fourteen, a sonneteer thy praises sings;
What magic myst’ries in that number lie!
Your hen hath fourteen eggs beneath her wings
That fourteen chickens to the roost may fly.
Fourteen full pounds the jockey’s stone must be;
His age fourteen – a horse’s prime is past.
Fourteen long hours too oft the Bard must fast;
Fourteen bright bumpers – bliss he ne’er must see!
Before fourteen, a dozen yields the strife;
Before fourteen – e’en thirteen’s strength is vain.
Fourteen good years – a woman gives us life;
Fourteen good men – we lose that life again.
What lucubrations can be more upon it?
Fourteen good measur’d verses make a sonnet

By Robert Burns"
