now that I have the pen robot, I could sign my books with the author's signature so my heirs will be so annoyed

6@kaia@pleroma.soykaf.com why would you delegate the beautiful task of writing to ai!?
@hannah it's not ai, it's just a plotter for drawing. but it can replicate any vector graphic, also handwriting. so I could copy famous handwritten texts 
@icedquinn @hannah @kaia I'm surprised this isn't widespread. I don't think the pen bot is too expensive, right? I assume it could be made out of off-the-shelf 3D printer parts too.
@cinerion @icedquinn @hannah
it's quite widespread actually. people buy 1st edition books and forge the signatures. since old books are most valuable they have to do it by hand, since autopens can't do fountain pens to my knowledge. you can buy such forgeries on eBay. that's why really valuable books with dedication or signature also come with certificate of authenticity, chain of custody / ownership etc.

@icedquinn @hannah @kaia @cinerion some modern fountain pen nibs are flexible and aren't as antiquated anymore.
I also have this ink from Noodler's called Brevity Blue, which is advertised to be forgery proof and laser proof. I'm pretty sure there are some sort of ink forensics used to determine that stuff.
