She is an award-winning novelist and short story writer with a diverse body of work, including historical fiction and psychological thrillers. She is a passionate advocate for reading and writing, and a self-proclaimed computer NERD who witnessed the evolution of technology from
early UNIX programming to modern AI. She is experienced in developing software solutions
and voice recognition systems since the 1970s.
In her word; we’ll take a look at common beliefs and feelings about using AI as a creator, and how you can make the decision of when and if you may want to use AI in your
creative process. Points she will cover…
To help you in making an informed decision, we’ll explore current laws and legal
