Fairy tale written by artificial intelligence

Humans only stepped in -- when they really needed to correct something,

Robots are writing fairy tales. ..sort of. A team of writers and programmers with Botnik worked together with Calm, a sleep and meditation app, to create a new story -- which you can listen to right on your phone.

The first bedtime story generated by AI (Artificial Intelligence) is also the first new Brothers Grimm fairy tale in 200 years. The new story – called “The Princess And The Fox” – is the product of a predictive text algorithm that was fed the stories of the Brothers Grimm, the famed compilers of children’s folktales, and trained to mimic their style.

Humans only stepped in -- when they really needed to correct something, otherwise they left some flaws in -- to make sure the AI technology wrote the majority of the story.
