特鲁勒 / Trurl

特鲁勒 / Trurl is one of the machine constructors in [[TheCyberiad|《机器人大师》 / The Cyberiad]], discussed in 45.机器人大师：多希望莱姆能评价一下ChatGPT啊！. The episode presents him as brilliant, proud, inventive, and comically fallible: he builds machines that can create worlds, write poems, solve royal problems, or unleash disasters.

Several highlighted stories center on him: the N-making machine nearly erases the universe after being asked for nothingness, the 2 + 2 = 7 machine pursues him after he insults it, the electronic poet beats human poets at their own prestige game, and a later dragon episode reveals him exploiting a slain dragon’s reputation after a king refuses to pay.
