About this Event
Many use AI in the form of "large language models" such as ChatGPT and Gemini to help them with everyday tasks. But should we writers be using it in our process? And will readers thank us, if we do? Martin Amis declared a "War Against Cliché". In this talk, I will argue for a war against the peculiar banality that large language models are limited to. Not quite as snappy, and employing an oxymoron - but definitely not written with AI.
Tim Kindberg (champignon.net) is a writer and digital creative from Bristol. In his dark, twisted novel Vampires of Avonmouth, a detective struggles to regain his humanity from an inner demon - and from techno-capitalism, to boot. Future Song, forthcoming, is set in near-future Bristol against a backdrop of adaptation to climate change. He also writes future fairy tales and poetry. He blogs and gives talks about the implications of AI.
