What if the entire medical system was run by one AI company? In his dystopian novel, The Hospital at the End of the World, Justin C. Key (CW ‘15) explores that question. And on October 15, he’ll sit down with physician Lakshmi Krishnan to go even deeper on the topic of AI in Medicine. bit.ly/47B8PIF

Chatting before @charmcityspec.bsky.social we had the sudden realization that the conversation included three @clarionwest.bsky.social grads and one instructor/hanger-on. Rutendo Chidzodzo, Justin C. Key, Carolyn Ives Gilman all looking lovely in the Ivy Bookshop garden.

As a Hollywood adjacent author, the fact that they changed the name of INCIDENTS AROUND THE HOUSE and didn’t say it was based on the novel in the trailer is criminal.
