Moderating a free, virtual panel, “A.I. and the Writer: An Unlikely Friendship”

One novelist, one memoirist and one poet — all working with A.I. as muse, collaborator and inspiration from the early days of generative A.I. to ChatGPT and into an uncertain future. What are the possibilities of A.I. for writers, and what are the perils? Join essayist and author Ethan Gilsdorf (Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks and “Dear Chatbot, Should I Write About My Dead Mother?”) for a conversation with novelist Sean Michaels (Do You Remember Being Born?), poet Lillian-Yvonne Bertram (Negative Money) and memoirist Hannah Silva (My Child, The Algorithm: An Alternatively Intelligent Book of Love) about the surprises of A.I. in their work, defying the backlash against A.I. in creativity, and embracing, or at least accepting, this unlikely collaborator.
