Thus far “love” has been spared algorithmic dissection. Perhaps because it is impossible to collect, impossible to model, impossible to predict; an unfathomable fixture of the human condition.
But what if love letters (tangible evidence of love — we can point to a correspondence of love letters as proof that “they loved!”) were parsed, patterned, predicted by an algorithm. Even... produced by artificial intelligence?
What would an AI generated love letter — born from something other than the human mind, from something other than human yearning — look like? What would it mean?
