RSE - Bot or not

Can you identify which poems have been created by AI and which have been created by humans? And does this differentiation really matter?

Artistic endeavours—such as writing poetry—are often regarded as humanity’s unique (and even divine) gift, capable of expressing profound emotional depths.

But can you distinguish between poetry penned by a human and that generated by AI? It might be more challenging than you think…

With a collection of poems, half sourced from the Scottish Poetry Library and half created by AI, we’re challenging you to guess whether these works were created by a bot or not.

Engage in stimulating discussions on the influence of technology on artistic expression and challenge your perceptions about the authenticity and emotional depth of poetry.

This online event aims to deepen your appreciation for poetry in all its forms and provoke thoughtful consideration of what truly makes a poem resonate.
