你考虑过送他几本奥克拉弗（Nnedi Okorafor）的《宾蒂》（Binti）系列吗？你也可以考虑赵希然（Xiran Jay Zhao）的《铁寡妇》（Iron Widow，巨型机甲大战外星人）、玛丽·陆（Marie Lu）的任何作品、艾米·考夫曼与杰·克里斯托夫（Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff）的《极光崛起》（Aurora Rising），或者瑞恩·格劳丁（Ryan Graudin）的《永恒之战》（Invictus）
Have you considered sending him some of Nnedi Okorafors Binti series? You might also think Iron Widow by xiran jay zhao (giant mechs vs aliens), anything by marie lu, aurora rising by amie kaufman & jay kristoff, invictus by ryan graudin
……从伪随机数生成器（PRNG）里突然得到一个漂亮数字，或者从 GPT 里得到一个酷炫的故事，那种兴奋感与体验人类倾注热情创作出来的故事完全是两码事。当我读到像《铁寡妇》（Iron Widow）这样精彩的故事时，我会打心底里敬佩作者的功底，并为她对续作的后续规划感到兴奋；我会在 Twitter 上关注作者，甚至互动几句，因为我很感激那个人类带给我的……
…excitement of suddenly getting a nice number out of a PRNG or a cool story out of GPT is a very different from experiencing a story passionately crafted by a human. When I read an amazing story like the Iron Widow, I feel respect towards the skills of the author, excitement for her future plans for the sequel; I follow the author on twitter and maybe interact a bit, because I appreciate what that human made me…
……单凭画作本身的画法就能看出来：这正是人类艺术意图的核心所在。这也是为什么人类意图对我至关重要的另一个原因，正如我在下面的评论所说：当我读到像《铁寡妇》（Iron Widow）这样精彩的故事时，我会打心底里敬佩作者的功底，并为她对续作的后续规划感到兴奋；我会在 Twitter 上关注作者，甚至互动几句，因为我很感激那个人类带给我的……
…just by how the piece itself is drawn: that's the whole point of human artistic intent. Another reason why human intent is important for me, from my comments below: when I read an amazing story like the Iron Widow, I feel respect towards the skills of the author, excitement for her future plans for the sequel; I follow the author on twitter and maybe interact a bit, because I appreciate what that human made me…
……有很多次我在类似 AAPI（亚裔美国人和太平洋岛民）科幻/奇幻小说的书单里看到某些我从未听说过的作品，随手一查才发现它们已经在筹备影视改编了。（例子包括赵希然的《铁寡妇》、匡灵秀的《罂粟战争》，以及李枫达的《绿骨传奇/翡翠之城》）。你凭什么认为这些作品背后的作者创作是在错判市场需求……
…There's been multiple times I've looked up something from a list of, say, AAPI sci-fi/fantasy novels that I've never heard of, only to find out adaptations are being worked on for them. (examples include Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao, The Poppy War by R.F. Huang, and Jade City by Fonda Lee). Who are you to suggest that the authors behind these works are doing it out of some misprioritization of what the market is…
> 赵的短篇/长篇小说《铁寡妇》被标记为“对中国女皇武则天崛起的重新构想”。这太搞笑了，武则天生活在中华人民共和国存在之前的很久很久以前，他们凭什么还要管它塑造了什么形象。
> Zhao’s novel “Iron Widow” was flagged as being a “reimagining of the rise of the Chinese Empress Wu Zetian.” This is funny, Wu Zetian lives long before the PR China even existed, why should they even what image it paints.
