Sometimes, I like to get stoned and take a nice hot shower to unwind. Time passes differently, and my mind wanders – usually to some very interesting places. Occasionally disturbing (we all have our demons), but mostly interesting. Typically, I will marvel at an idea that I had, think what a good (book/movie/song/delete as appropriate) it would be, and then promptly forget to do anything about it.

This evening after a particularly long and arduous day at work, I was letting my mind wander as the droplets rushed over me, and I had an idea that sounded like it could make a short story. I reasoned with myself that I would never get around to writing it, argued with myself for a while on how it would actually go, and then wondered what would happen if I gave the prompt to ChatGPT.

So this time, I took that random thought and did something with it. As you’ll see below, this actually worked out, so I’m going to start up a series: GPTweaked. Every so often, I’ll imbibe and have some high thoughts, and I’m going to feed them to ChatGPT to see what it makes of them. And now, on with the show!
