These days they write novels by day, while roaming the Internet at night in search of wayward manuscripts to thump into submission. Weapons include surprise, fear, profanity and the martyrfucking Oxford comma.

Quotes by L.X. Beckett (?)

“Game theory and learned experienceâ€”these were believed to be drivers for self-awareness. AIs would play toward their goals obsessively, striving to optimize success, until the cycle of win or lose, succeed or fail, sparked perfect conditions to trigger sentience.”
― L.X. Beckett, Gamechanger
