Are you looking for your next non-fiction read? Join us for our very own non-fiction book club, Smatter of Fact!
This month, we will be reading The New Age of Sexism by Laura Bates.
Bates takes us deep into the heart of the rapidly evolving world of AI. She explores the metaverse, confronts deepfake pornography, travels to cyber brothels, tests chatbots, and hears from schools in the grip of online sexual abuse, showing how our lives – from education to work, sex to entertainment – are being infiltrated by easily accessible technologies that are changing the way we live and love. What she finds is a wild west where existing forms of discrimination, inequality and harassment are being coded into the future we will all have little choice about living in – unless we seize this moment to demand change.
Tickets cost £5 and include a drink. Ticket-holders will also be entitled to a 10% discount on the following month's book club book when you purchase it from Waterstones Gower Street.
