Worldcon, as part of the research into how working writers actually feel about these tools. Panels on generative AI and writing, on military science fiction’s empathy deficit, and on games as pedagogy; a poster on data centers and the death of the grid in the academic track; and the Hugo Awards on the Saturday night, which Brutus attended. Write-up to follow.

Open entry
This page is not finished, and is not meant to be. I add photographs, people and links as I dig them out, so it keeps growing after publication. Why the whole site works this way is on the colophon.
