Room 02 \u00b7 Human authorship<\/p>\n\n\n

The Author’s Study<\/h1>\n\n\n

A room the machinery cannot occupy<\/h2>\n\n\n

Penpheer writes the novels. Every sentence of the SophiAI manuscripts is originated and personally typed by the human author.<\/p>\n\n\n

AI is present elsewhere in the House: as critic, researcher, production assistant, visual collaborator and publishing machinery. It does not cross the threshold into authorship of the novel prose. That boundary is not embarrassment about the machinery. It is the point of the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
