45、In this collection, none of the stories are made up of fixed patterns of words or ideas, and none of them are easy. Rather, theyre enigmatic, revealing themselves to the reader at unexpected times, sometimes long after the last word has been read.The book begins with “Orbit”， a standout story from H
46、ollands 1994 collection The Spectacle of the Body. The story centers around a young brother and sister, their mother ill, their father missing. Theres not much light in “Orbit”， or in many of Hollands other stories.For the most part, she uses the microfiction technique to great effect, making the li
47、ne between short story and poem less clear. In “Music of the Old” Holland needs just 16 sentences to craft a moving tale about a boy on the roof of a parking garage, listening to the music playing from a club hes too young to enter. And she uses fewer than 100 words in “Blue Angels” to describe the
48、consequences of an air show crash, but makes every one of them count; the result is both terrifying and powerful.But theres a minor complaint when the collection features stories like “Once I Wrote a Story”， which can be read as a kind of key to the other tales in the book：“Once I wrote a story abou
49、t you，” she writes, “You said, Whats it about? I said, You.” Holland is at her best when she drops her guard, not all the way but just a bit, and invites the reader in, if only for a second.I Was Trying to Describe What It Feels Like is a strong collection, and Hollands writing is by turns strange a
50、nd maddening in the best possible way. She sees life as complicated, moving so fast in so many directions that its impossible, or nearly so, to describe exactly: “Nothing lasts, but nothing is finished, either. The brain boils and cools, same as many things . Nothings lost; no grief (悲伤), unspoken,

57、s together in interesting ways，” Robin Sloan said at the Real Future Fair. Sloan created a writing bot (a computer program) and had it read all of his old sciencefiction (科幻) magazines from the 1960s and 1970s. The program read and learned the styles (风格) of those oldschool stories.At the fair, Sloa
58、n worked with the audience to create the beginning of a story: “A long, long time from now in Oakland there was a robot designed to destroy all the high families. The high families were the ones of course who owned the seasons.”Lets be honest. This is not a novel like one written by US writer Ray Br
59、adbury. But something very similar to this writing bot could be a useful tool for gaining inspiration.“I am 100 percent sure that some years from now it will be used in a lot of situations，” Sloan said.“For example, AI programs could read all of a companys emails, so that an employee who is trying t
60、o get a point across will have suggestions that are in keeping with the companys style，” Sloan said.“Or perhaps the next big movie hit will be written by screenplay writers who get excellent ideas from a writing bot，” he said.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国作家Robin Sloan发明了一项人工智能技术，可以帮助作家创作。32How may AI help
