What if the most human poetry you read this year was written by a machine?

The Poetry Contest: Human vs. Machine is more than a poetry collection—it's a literary experiment that explores what it means to create, to feel, and to be heard in the age of artificial intelligence.

In this one-of-a-kind collaboration, poet Lyman Ditson shares the stage with Adam A.I.—an artificial poet he calls Adam. For every poem Lyman writes, Adam responds, creating verse on love, memory, war, grief, and beauty. The result is a dialogue between man and machine that challenges assumptions about authorship, authenticity, and the future of creativity.

Some of Adam's poems are moving. Others are sharp. Some are unsettling. All of them raise the question Lyman kept asking himself while working on this:

If a machine can write a poem that moves you... does it matter who (or what) wrote it?

Whether you're an artist wrestling with technology's influence, a tech enthusiast curious about the emotional potential of AI, or simply a reader seeking fresh, resonant work—The Poetry Contest opens a door into a new kind of creative relationship. One where emotion is not just expressed—but questioned.

This isn't really a contest. It's a collaboration. It's a mirror. And it's a question for you.
