I'm in mild shock. I asked Microsoft's Co-pilot (packaged with the Office subscription) to summarize my most recent story (Change Management). I was expecting it to fail, badly, because much of what's in the story is implied but not described. Bugger me sideways if it didn't come back with an accurate description (below). I'd rate it a 7/10 at least - when I asked it to do a deeper dive, it didn't quite get some of the Machiavelli stuff right. Also, it completely ignores the criticism of AI contained in the story.

Main Characters:
Their relationship quickly becomes intimate and conspiratorial. Lilith seduces Adam both intellectually and sexually, drawing him into a plot to remove the CEO (DJ) and Deputy CEO (Terry). Adam orchestrates a Halloween prank that results in Terry’s death, and Lilith later engineers DJ’s downfall through scandal.
Adam is promoted but becomes increasingly drained by Lilith’s demands—both professional and sexual. Eventually, he disappears, and it’s implied that Lilith has killed and possibly consumed him, using his remains as fertilizer and food.
Ginevra replaces Adam as Lilith’s new protégé and lover. The story ends with Ginevra taking over as acting CEO while Lilith is mysteriously “ill,” hinting that Ginevra may be continuing Lilith’s legacy—or surpassing it.
