I read somewhere someone actually got a bunch of monkeys together and tried this. The monkeys rubbed poop on the keyboards then proceeded to beat each other with them.
Yes. And the proof is, it already happened. And it didn’t take as nearly long or require so many monkeys.
A few million years ago, there were millions of monkeys living in Africa. Over time, the monkeys evolved into humans, and eventually into Shakespeare, who wrote a bunch of plays and sonnets. As a bonus, the humans also invented typewriters.

More likely, typing The Nine Billion Names Of God would do it first.

So a black hole. Figures, Shakespeare loved a good fart joke.

Oddly enough, it could be done by a finite set of generative AIs. :)
