ChatGPT
Arthur C. Clarke's story "The Light of Darkness" is part of his collection of short stories titled "Tales from the White Hart," published in 1957. In this story, the protagonist, Harry Purvis, is a regular patron of the White Hart pub, where he often shares tall tales and speculative theories with the other regulars.

In "The Light of Darkness," Purvis tells a story about a scientist who has developed a device capable of capturing and storing darkness. This darkness, when released, illuminates everything around it. The scientist, however, encounters unexpected consequences when he releases the darkness in a room filled with people. Instead of providing light, it brings out the worst fears and nightmares of those present.

The story explores themes of human psychology, the nature of light and darkness, and the unforeseen consequences of scientific advancements. It combines elements of science fiction with a touch of humor and philosophical reflection, typical of Clarke's style.
