Today (July 7) is publication day for my new book. I’m incredibly proud of This Machine Kills Billionaires. Available now in all formats, I can’t wait for you to read it. If you’re after dark, thoughtful, propulsive, but above all: deeply human science fiction, look no further.

Everyone talks about the deadly snakes and myriad spiders in Australia, but they usually leave you alone. These buggers, however? A menace.

It is with immense honour, delight and mind-blown gratitude for his time that we present to you part 1 of our extra-long interview spectacular with none other than RICHARD K MORGAN!!! 🤯🥳🥰 Listen to the fascinating thoughts of the author of cyberpunk classic Altered Carbon (as well as a host of other ace books), including some brilliant insights into what it feels like to have your debut book become a bestseller, get optioned for movie rights, and eventually be adapted into one of Netflix's most biggest budget shows ever!! shorturl.at/YJiQd

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

Well this is awesome. Pop culture behemoth CBR just dropped their top 5 list of 'essential' cyberpunk books. Four are much as you'd expect (Do Androids Dream, Neuromancer, Snow Crash, and Altered Carbon), & one you wouldn't. My debut, 36 Streets. cbr.com/must-read-cyberpunk-…

This is deeply disturbing: Anthropic secretly invited religious leaders to SF to advise them on AI safety, had them sign NDAs, but then primarily tried to convince them Claude has a soul & moral standing, all while wining & dining them to the max. 1/ tinyurl.com/preview/296b5z8z
