Mary Robinette Kowal, author of the recently released Without a Summer, joins us to discuss one of science fiction’s longest-lived concepts: artificial intelligence. We explore the motivations behind their prevalence in SF, early examples of AI (pre-Victorian Era), and more. Plus, we talk a little bit about Mary’s new book, which we’re sure a lot of you will love! We hope you enjoy the episode!
