The Robot Chronicles

A Word from Edward W. Robertson

I’ve been into robots in a big way ever since I was a little kid obsessed with Disney’s The Black Hole. But when it comes to AI, I’m not sure we can design them from the top down—seems to me we’ll probably have to model them after our own brains, piling together parallel processors until consciousness emerges.

And if that’s how we do it, I think they’ll be every bit as irrational and emotional as we are.

I’m a sci-fi and fantasy author living in Los Angeles—which I’ve blown up, repeatedly, in my post-apocalyptic Breakers series. You can find a full list of my books here: http://edwardwrobertson.com/my-books/
