Huzzah, clues! But now I am at work. I will have to furtively chip away at this and see if I can come up with anything.

Whilst the AI is very impressive, your version is definitely better and much more British.

Oh and that book sounds great. Look forward to the review.

Thanks Nathan. Why do you think mine is better?

Hard to pinpint. It's harder with the inherent bias of knowing you wrote it rather than an AI, but the language feels more appropriate to a British reader. I can imagine the ranting going on in parliament with all the nods and grumbles of agreement from the backbenchers.

I'm trying but I still can't figure out the puzzle. I'll come back to it. If our friend Mitchell Allen is reading, I'll bet he'll get it.

And your version was much better than the AI version.

Oh I thought Mitchell was a new subscriber. https://puzzlebooks.substack.com/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=substack_profile

He creates mind-bending puzzles that I can never figure out.

The AI version of the story while impressive, seemed, as you said, old fashioned and somewhat stereotypical, old time, southern US politician. Your version of a typical pandering MP was much more authentic. (and humorous.)

Thanks for the clues! I'm still working on the puzzle...

Your ChatGPT writer personas were fascinating, ditto your Experiments in style. Your variation sounds more authentic, so that one wins for me, although I found the ChatGPT version very entertaining.
