Thanks, yeah, I do that, but I was curious if anyone here actually knows how this particular platform works. I am getting the impression that people have their own guesses based on their own experience, but nobody really knows, which is quite surprising really since there's thousands of us using it.

you know that scene in Alien, with the guy at the dinner table? I feel like that's what happens when I follow this advice.

Question about Blue Sky...

When I/we post, who sees it?

Certainly not all my followers. And when I hashtag, yes, it pops up in that thread, but then gets quickly buried by other posts.

And does anyone who is NOT my follower see it? Do any threads or groups I don't hashtag?

Anybody know?

Fake image of a calendar type of planner

Happy Saturday! Thinking about the days of week, I wonder how many writers make their stories work in terms of the passage of time? During revisions, I judge how long each event should take, and then try to make the times and days sort of work.

I hope not! 🤓

Excited to announce that "The Murder Algorithm" continues to receive recognition. Recently Short Listed by the Chanticleer Int'l Book Awards! Maybe it makes the Semi Finals next! 🤓

Within 10 minutes I just saw two AI made commercials. One on line for Amazon, and one on TV. I could tell instantly that they were AI (I work in the field).

But soon, full ads will not only look perfectly real, they will be instantly tailored to households and individuals.

Waymo's self driving cars are significantly safer than human driven, by 70% or more! With that kind of increased safety, will humans even be allowed to drive in the future (other than recreationally)?

I love the feeling of figuring out that your story has a problem, and immediately realizing what a solution is, knowing that it will make the story so much better.

Just finished the first draft of my next novel, a near future sci fi techno thriller. Now comes the hard work; "going back and making it seem like I knew what I was doing all along" (paraphrasing @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com).

The Minority Report predicts gestural interfaces and other technology, but misses AI.

In June of 1999, Spielberg invited about 15 experts to a three-day think tank to brainstorm what the future might look like for The Minority Report.

It is so hard to predict the future! For instance, the story (by PKD) had 3 almost magical "precogs." In reality, we will actually have predictive AI.

Wishing any dads out there a happy Father's Day. My dad is in his mid eighties now and is getting very introspective/retrospective (there's probably a German word for that). I always remind him that my love of reading science fiction came from him, and he agrees, that's great success. 🤓

On my way to an FYC event for The Daily Show in Hollywood. One of the advantages of living in LA and being a member of The Academy is how much fun awards season can be!

June is "Focus on Writing" month for me. I need to jumpstart my writing productivity. It's goal time. No vegging in front of the tube without also working on the book. Time to finish my next novel and make it great!

One of the fake book names (The Last Algorithm) was close to the name of my book (The Murder Algorithm), and for a moment I thought, that probably would have been a good mistake for me, because suddenly thousands of people would have been looking for my title. 🙂

Just returned to Los Angeles from London. Maybe it is because Los Angeles is so spread out, but if felt like there were more bookstores in London.

To be honest, I couldn't get into it. I was glad they made it into a show (it's usually the opposite).

Watch The Skies movie poster

This fun sci-fi film is being released in AMC theaters in the US on May 9th. Originally in Swedish, it has been translated to English using the real actors' voices, using AI to make their mouths move correctly.

This is groundbreaking, ethical, and highly recommended.

Did you know that the word "robot" comes from the Czech word robota, meaning forced labor, and was first used in Karel Čapek’s 1920 play R.U.R.?

Glad to be here, in such good company!

There once was a time when advertisers were aware of a thing called oversaturation, where customers would get highly annoyed at seeing the same ad too many times.

Now, I see the same annoying ads 2 or 3 times each and every commercial break, for months. I truly hate it.

(I know, don't watch)

The ripple effect, from a single writers hopes and dreams...
