I’ll be at C2E2

You can find me at three places at C2E2, the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo, this Friday, April 26, in the McCormick Place.

I’ll be on a panel: Artificial, Intelligent, and Fiction? from 2:45 to 3:45 p.m. in Room S402-B. The panel description: “You can’t turn around without being confronted with AI. From the obvious, like Chat GPT, to the less obvious, like intelligent agents that screen resumes of job applicants, AI is everywhere. This stellar group of writers discuss how the approach AI in the age of AI.” The other panelists are James Cox, J.S. Dewes, and John Jackson Miller, with moderator A.S. King.

After the panel, we’ll be signing books from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. at Anderson’s Bookshop, Booth 163. You don’t need to have a book for us to sign to come and say hi! We’d all love to see you.

Earlier in the day, I’ll be volunteering at the Science Fiction Outreach Project, Booths 1033 and 1132. This is the free books people. Stop by the booth to choose from its selection of gently used and well-loved science fiction and fantasy books. We have books for all ages, and we’re happy to help you or your young book-lovers find their next great read. We’re also happy to tell you where you can find other science fiction and fantasy book nerds at conventions in Chicago and elsewhere. The booth will operate Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Free books, no strings attached.

If you can’t make it to C2E2, and you have questions or thoughts about how to approach AI in the age of AI, share them in the comments here at the blog. Or if you could give away books, what books would you hand to random passers-by?
