《哈利·波特》有更新了！哈利波特迷奔走相告，发现新篇章辣眼睛。

近日，AI（人工智能）又搞出了大事情！居然写出了哈利波特同人文。当然迎来的是各大媒体地毯式刷屏报道。

《每日邮报》报道，哈利波特更新了，这个魔法系列新篇章是由一个预测编码键盘撰写。粉丝非常痴迷于文章的滑稽内容。

《卫报》报道称，“他开始吃赫敏的家人”，机器试着写《哈利·波特》，魔法描写部分垮掉了。
BBC报道称，电脑给《哈利·波特》写了个奇葩的新篇章。
Metro：一个机器人写了一本《哈利·波特》新篇章，小说太逗了！

新篇章长3页，由Botnik Studios的AI机器人创作。写小说当然要有名字，AI自己写了个名字

“Harry Potter and the Portrait of What Looked Like a Large Pile of Ash” 《哈利·波特与看起来像一堆灰烬的肖像》。内容更是“引人入胜”，比如“怀孕的伏地魔” “他看到了哈利，然后立刻开始吃赫敏的全家”......

Kage the Mediogre‏：你要是还没看《哈利·波特与看起来像一堆灰烬的肖像》，那你可就亏大了。

Miss Baltimore Crabs：这本书就是2017年最美好的作品。
Brian Brushwood：要是你还没看这本书，希望你放下手边所有事，去读一下《哈利·波特与看起来像一堆灰烬的肖像》。
这边还有因剧情荒诞笑到停不下来，不甘示弱要剧透你一脸的。

Samuel Barnett‏：对哈利波特的粉丝来说，这本书就是必读物。罗恩会变成蜘蛛，不，他已经是了。“现在并没有那么帅了”，哈利这么想着，顺便用赫敏蘸了蘸辣酱。
带你来看看原汁原味的AI描述。

“食死徒就在城堡顶上。”罗恩轻声说还颤抖着。罗恩打算变成一只蜘蛛，实际上他已经变成一只蜘蛛了。他对此一点儿都不骄傲，但在说了而且已经变成蜘蛛后，想让自己身上不爬满蜘蛛是很难的。
"Death Eaters are on top of the castle!" Ron bleated, quivering. Ron was going to be spiders. He just was. He wasn't proud of that , but it was going to be hard to not have spiders all over his body after all is said and done.

“现在就不那么帅了。”哈利这么想着，便用赫敏蘸起了辣酱。食尸徒全都死了，而哈利却发现，自己从来没有如此饥饿。
"Nor so handsome now," thought Harry as he dipped Hermione in hot sauce. The Death Eaters were dead now, and Harry was hungrier than he had ever been.

Mike Selden：这是AI的语言键盘写出的小说情节。罗恩在问：“罗恩的魔法呢？”，不过对哈利来说，罗恩就是一致聒噪、笨拙又软弱无能的鸟。哈利真的不太喜欢想这些事情。
“罗恩的魔法呢”，罗恩说。对哈利来说，罗恩是一只又聒噪、飞得又慢的笨鸟。哈利不喜欢想到小鸟。
“What about Ron magic?”offered Ron. To Harry, Ron was a loud, slow, and soft bird. Harry did not like to think about birds.

Amy Sterling：笑到停不下来。AI写的这一段哈利波特真的太让人惊讶了。

更多的网友则是毫不犹豫地显示了自己喜爱之情：

Beck the Halls：圣诞节就只想要一本《哈利·波特与看起来像一堆灰烬的肖像》，希望我的梦想能够实现。
Brostalgia：希望罗琳能够考虑一下把这本书电影化。

AI机器清奇的文风着实让人震惊。CD君（微信：chinadailywx）翻译了第十三章全部内容，重点标出了让人猝不及防的猛料，一起感受下。

Botnik工作室在官网上公布了部分小说内容。

如下是官网公布的《哈利·波特与看起来像一堆灰烬的肖像》第十三章，题目就帅气逼人，“The Handsome One”（英俊的少年）。

这一章的情节是这样展开的。

如被施了魔法般的猛烈狂风冲着城堡咆哮。外面的天空黑得怪异，如同一个巨大的黑色天花板，上面布满鲜血。唯一一点点声音就是从海格的小屋所飘出的家具的刺耳尖叫声。
The castle grounds snarled with a wave of magically magnified wind. The sky outside was a great black ceiling, which was full of blood. The only sounds drifting from Hagrid's hut were the disdainful shrieks of his own furniture.

魔法：是种哈利波特认为非常赞的东西。
Magic: it was something that Harry Pottert hought was very good.

哈利走向城堡，皮革纸般的雨击打在他的灵魂上。罗恩站在城堡前，狂魔乱舞，还是踢踏舞。他看到了哈利，然后立马开始吃赫敏的全家。（能这样写小说的果然不是人。）
Leathery sheets of rain lashed at Harry's ghost as he walked across the grounds towards the castle. Ron was standing there and doing a kind of frenzied tap dance. He saw Harry and immediately began to eat Hermione's family.

罗恩的罗恩衬衫跟他本人一样糟糕。
Ron's Ron shirt was just as bad as Ron himself.

"如果你们两个不能愉快玩耍，那么休怪我无礼，" 一贯讲道理的赫敏说道。
“If you two can't clump happily, I'm going to get aggressive, confessed the reasonable Hermione.”

“罗恩的魔法呢”，罗恩说。对哈利来说，罗恩是一只又聒噪、飞得又慢的笨鸟。哈利不喜欢想到小鸟。（其实，也不知道AI兄要说什么......毕竟我们是如假包换的人脑。）
“What about Ron magic?”offered Ron. To Harry, Ron was a loud, slow, and soft bird. Harrydid not like to think about birds.

“食死徒就在城堡顶上。”罗恩轻声说，还颤抖着。罗恩打算变成一只蜘蛛，实际上他已经变成一只蜘蛛了。他对此一点儿都不骄傲，但在说了而且已经变成蜘蛛后，想让自己身上不爬满蜘蛛是很难的。（这AI是不是还看过《西游记》？感觉孙悟空附体，变个蜘蛛、苍蝇之类的完全不在话下，并且乐此不疲。）
"Death Eaters are on top of the castle!" Ron bleated, quivering. Ron was going to be spiders. Hejust was. He wasn't proud of that , but it was going to be hard to not havespiders all over his body after all is said and done.

“看，”赫敏说。“很显然城堡里有大量的食死徒，我们去偷听他们都在讲什么。”
'Look,' said Hermione. 'Obviously there are loads of Death Eaters in the castle. Let's listen in on their meetings.'"

这三个好友溜到了城堡屋顶的门外。他们差点儿要迈腿，但巫师不做攀爬这种事儿。罗恩看着门把手，然后带着烧灼的疼痛转头看赫敏。
The three compete friends zapped onto the landing outside thedoor to the castle roof. They almost legged it, but witches are not climbing.Ron looked at the doorknob and then looked at Hermione with searing pain.

“我觉得门是关着的。”他发现。
“I think it’s closed,” he noticed.

“关着的，”楼梯先生说。楼梯先生是一个穿得破烂长袍的幽灵。所有人都看着门，嘶吼着这门到底关得有多严，讨论要不要用一个小圆球来代替它。
“Locked,” said Mr.Staircase, the shabby-robed ghost. They looked at the door, screaming about howclosed it was and asking it to be replaced with a small orb.

这门的密码是“牛肉女人”，赫敏高喊道。（网友吐槽：这密码是什么鬼！）
The password was “BEEF WOMEN,” Hermione cried.

哈利、罗恩和赫敏安安静静地站在一圈看上去很糟糕的食死徒后面。
"Harry, Ron, and Hermione quietly stood behind a circle of Death eaters who looked bad.

“如果你喜欢我，我觉得这样可以”，一个食死徒说。
'I think it's okay if you like me,' saidone Death Eater.

“太感谢你了，”另一个回答。前一个说话的食死徒自信满满地倾过身，深吻他的面颊。
'Thank you very much,' replied the other.The first Death Eater confidently leaned forward to plant a kiss on his cheek.

“哇！干得好！”后者说，他的朋友身体又退了回去。其他食死徒们礼貌性地鼓掌。之后，他们又花了几分钟时间谈论如何干掉哈利魔法的计划。
'Oh! Well done!' said the second as his friend stepped back again. All the other Death Eaters clapped politely. Then they all took a few minutes to go over the plan to get rid of Harry's magic.

此刻，哈利能感受到伏地魔就站在身后。他反应强烈，把眼睛从头上撕下来，扔到了森林里。这时，伏地魔对着哈利挑了挑眉毛，不过哈利这会什么都看不到了。 (哈利到底是经历了什么，这个自戳双目的反应确实很过激……)
Harry could tell that Voldemort was standing right behind him. He felt a great overreaction. Harry tore his eyes from his head and threw then into the forest.Voldemort raised his eyebrows at Harry, who could not see anything at the moment.

读到这里，真的是忍不住想插上一句，有没有人给画一下伏地魔的眉毛在哪里？

哈利恶狠狠地说道：“伏地魔！你就是个又坏又刻薄的巫师！”赫敏也拼命点头表示赞同。有个高个子食死徒穿了一件T恤，上面写着“赫敏已经忘了怎么跳舞”，于是他的脸就被赫敏怼到了土里。（这里，对食死徒产生了一点点的同情……）
"Voldemort, you're a very bad and mean wizard," Harry savagely said. Hermione nodded encouragingly. The tall Death Eater was wearing a shirt that said 'Hermione Has Forgotten How To Dance,' so Hermione dipped his face in mud.

罗恩把一根魔杖扔向伏地魔，在场的所有人都拍手称赞。罗恩回应了一个微笑，随后慢慢地接近自己扔出去的那根魔杖。
Ron threw a wand at Voldemort and everyone applauded. Ron smiled. Ron reached for his wand slowly.

“罗恩果然是最帅的那一个”，哈利小声嘀咕着，他才不情愿去拿自己的魔杖。他们又念了几个咒语，食死徒的脑袋便开始冒起了绿烟。罗恩这个时候退缩了。
"Ron's the handsome one," muttered Harry as he reluctantly reached for his. They cast a spell or two, and jets of green light shot out of the Death Eaters' heads. Ron flinched.

“现在就不那么帅了。”哈利这么想着，便用赫敏蘸起了辣酱。食尸徒全都死了，而哈利却发现，自己从来没有如此饥饿。（刚还觉得帅，这会又不那么帅了，哈利也是个心情难以捉摸的boy啊！）
"Nor so handsome now," thought Harry as he dipped Hermione in hot sauce. The Death Eaters were dead now, and Harry was hungrier than he had ever been.

霍格沃茨的礼堂里到处都是不停呻吟的树枝形吊灯，水池也被一个高大的图书管理员用讲石工建筑的书装饰起来了。如山般聚集的老鼠四处炸开来，几个很长的南瓜也从麦格教授身上掉下来。邓布利多刚到学校，他的长发就迅速跑到了赫敏旁边。
The Great Hall was filled with incredible moaning chandeliers and a large librarian who had decorated the sinks with books about masonry. Mountains of mice exploded. Several long pumpkins fell out of McGonagall. Dumbledore's hair scooted next to Hermione as Dumbledore arrived at school.

赫奇帕奇学院有一只猪，跳得跟牛蛙一样。邓布利多微笑着把手放在它头上，说：“从现在开始，你就是海格了。”（心疼海格三分钟。）
The pig of Hufflepuff pulsed like a large bullfrog. Dumbledore smiled at it, and placed his hand on its head:"You are Hagrid now."

“我们才是唯一重要的人，他永远摆脱不了我们。”哈利、赫敏和罗恩齐声说着。
"We're the only people who matter. He's never going to get rid of us," Harry, Hermione, and Ron said in chorus.

城堡的地板像是被施了强大的魔法，德思礼一家人永远都不会来这座城堡，他们也不会出现在《哈利·波特与看起来像一堆灰烬的肖像》这本书中。哈利看着四周，这一整个夏天，他都不断地从旋转楼梯上掉下来。
The floor of the castle seemed like a large of magic. The Dursleys had never been to the castle and they were not about to come there in Harry Potter and the Portrait of What Looked Like a Large Pile of Ash. Harry looked around and then fell down the spiral staircase for the rest of the summer.

“我是哈利波特”，哈利开始大喊：“黑魔法最好长点心，天啊！”
"I'm Harry Potter," Harry began to yelling. "The dark arts better be worried, oh boy!"

据《每日邮报》报道，这个AI写手是纽约Botnik工作室研发的。他们据了解，为了能够创作出新的作品，该工作室让AI机器人拜读了《哈利·波特》整个系列小说。虽然最终出来的故事读起来有些乏味、不够曲折，但它仍旧保留了罗琳一贯的异想天开。

只看书还不够，还有网站还推出了有声读物。

当然，中国的网友也是炸开了锅。大家发表了五花八门的读后感。

曾惊秋肃临天下：还真挺好看有一种魔幻现实主义感
南歐小肥魚的魚：哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈笑瘋了
