What if advanced sentient machines could re-write our collective fables, the myths of foundation that define the very essence of being human beings? A script written by the artificial intelligence language model GPT3 and co-authored by the classic greek writer Ovid, describes the uncanny new world the nymph Daphne wakes up in, after her shapeshifting into a laurel tree. Her new fluid body defies gravity, suspended mid-air in a procedural, newborn, virgin and ever-morphing planet.
