From a programming perspective the examples are completely different from writing a cohesive novel, and so don't really count as proof of concept.

  • Number 1, Number 4, and Number 6 are probably not much more than fancy mad-libs or decision trees at their core.
  • Number 3 wasn't even fully computer generated. The computer generated aspect was probably done with a Markov Chain or similar, which just spits out words based on the probability they appear after other words in English text-- there's no overarching context or understanding.
  • Number 8 looks a little impressive on the surface, but was definitely helped by a human at least a little. Hard to say more without sitting through a long video; but it's hard to take someone who generates deliberately misleading spam books for amazon too seriously.

    Apart from #8 what's missing in all these? Memory. Understanding. Cause and effect. Unique and purposeful meaning. Anything that actually would actually make a novel enjoyable and not just a meaningless insane stream of consiousness.

    It's easy to spew out words with statistics or sentence fragments or fill in the blanks. It's quite another thing to keep track of the implications of a mistake that a character made three chapters ago and write about it sensibly.

    With all the advances nowadays it wouldn't be too surprising if we actually got computer intelligence eventually, but that will be at most only distantly related to these mad-libs and meaningless superficial poems.

There are several modern psychotherapists in the Jungian school that take this seriously. You probably won't find a whole lot outside of this discipline, apart from probably some Eastern or alternative medicine practices. The opinion of most modern psychotherapists don't matter much to me though compared to the Jungians, but that is just my opinion and experience. A few of the local Jungian Analysts in my Jungian Society that I've had the opportunity to attend seminars with use bodily therapy for some of their patients with apparently a high level of success, if the patient is open to that sort of treatment. A lot aren't. Personally, I had a swallowing condition earlier this year and this passage that you quoted really made me think when I was first read it, which just so happened to be around the time that the symptoms were occurring. Even if you want to be skeptical about the mind-body connection, which I honestly don't think the connection is much of a stretch, it is helpful to ask yourself such questions regarding your condition. "What is it that I cannot stand or cannot swallow or stomach, etc.?" It can only increase consciousness. If you think about it, if you can't walk, there are probably a whole lot of things that "you can't stand" and bringing those contents into consciousness can be very therapeutic. My swallowing condition was caused by adverse side effects of medication prescribed for an eye condition, so I then asked "what is it that I am not seeing?" Regardless if the causes if the conditions were psychological in origin or not, those are powerful questions to ask and there are always answers there what ever the question is.

I haven't read either of these two books, but they are on my list. They might be worth checking out if the subject interests you:

Yes, I have experienced itchiness in the back and top of my head, all spots where vitiligo have developed. There is also a book called My Victory Against Vitiligo: https://www.amazon.com/Victory-Against-Vitiligo-successful-Practical-ebook/dp/B00I6T4X28 Where the author also describes an itchy sensation. I believe the itchiness has something to do with a fungus.

Hi! If you clicked the link in the post above, it may have taken you to the United States version of the Amazon store. However, the book should also be available in the UK, on the Amazon UK website. When I visit the book's page on the Amazon UK website, it is showing me a price of £0.00, which should be the price all day Monday (until 11:59 PST, I think). Here's the Amazon UK link for the book.

Yeah I'm not a fan of the feeling either but I get past it because my skin seems to heal quicker and it stops me from picking at night because I cant grip my skin when it's oily.

Well I've actually read a few books on it. I believe I read it in this one.
