Could a writing robot make novelists obsolete? 机器人作家会让人类小说家失业吗？ It might not happen anytime soon, but then again, it might. In Japan, a short novel co-written by an artificial intelligence program (its co-author is human) made it past the first stage of a literary contest, the Japan News reports. 目前也许还不能，但未来可说不准。据日本资讯社报道，一篇由人工智能程序和人类作家合作完成的短篇小说在一项文学大赛中通过了第一轮筛选。 The Nikkei Hoshi Shinichi Literary Award is named after Hoshi Shinichi, a Japanese science fiction author whose books include "The Whimsical Robot" and "Greetings from Outer Space." Judges for the prize weren't told which novels were written by humans and which were penned by human-computer teams. 日本星新一文学奖是以日本科幻小说家星新一命名的一个奖项，该作家的作品包括《反复无常的机器人》、《来自外太空的问候》等。该奖的评委并不会被事先告知作品是由人类还是人机共创的。 |
