I am conducting research on AI-generated characters. Using these characters, I have written three letters: a love letter, a challenge letter, and a family letter.
Love Letter: The recipient does not need to understand the words to know my feelings and what I want to express.
Challenge Letter: Roughly translated as "Xu Bing, are you the only one who can use character as an art symbol?", it questions the monopoly on artistic symbols and declares war on them.
Family Letter: There's not much to say, as I haven't been in touch with my family much since being away. It's done perfunctorily.
The letter, as a medium, facilitates communication between the sender and the recipient. It seems that the readability of the text is not so important after all.

我在做AI 生成文字研究。用这些文字写成了这三封信，分别是情书、战书、家书。
① 情书：接收者不需要读懂文字，她也能够知晓我的心意以及我想表达什么内容。
② 战书：大致翻译“徐冰，就只有你可以用文字作为艺术符号啊？”，是我对艺术符号垄断产生质疑，对他们的宣战。
③ 家书：简单完成。
信作为载体，在寄信人与收信者间往来。似乎，文字是否可读也不那么重要了。
