In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Thomas R. Weaver discusses his debut novel, Artificial Wisdom. In this techno-thriller murder mystery, Tom tackles two major issues: climate change and artificial intelligence. He began writing this story by asking the question: What if the global community were to put its faith in an AI leader in a Brexit-style referendum? It is 25 years in the future. The world is polarized by politics and is splitting apart. And the planet is gripped by a combination of crises--war, climate change and technology that has advanced exponentially. But all of this serves as a backdrop to a very personal and human story that centers around a reporter whose personal tragedy and grief has a direct connection to the crises that plague the global community. In this episode, I’ll chat with Tom about his writing journey, why writing his own books has made reading fiction much more difficult for him, and what he means when he says that he and his manuscript underwent a great deal of bouncing and interrogating.
