“Quantum Worlds” cover reveal

Behold!

This is the first story I wrote with ChatGPT, about… a struggling science fiction magazine editor who decides to embrace AI instead of fighting against it, and revolutionizes everything. So of course, it makes sense that the cover would be patterned after Clarkesworld’s iconic covers, since I basically wrote it in response to them closing down submissions to all AI-assisted stories.

It’s out for free now, if you want to check it out. Enjoy!

  1. I enjoyed the story, but it didn’t seem Sci Fi to me. Yes, it was going into the future, but…
    I usually like your stories, so I’ll probably like the ones co-authored with AI.
    Good luck.
    I signed up, so I might be on 2 lists, I hope not.

    1. Thanks Stasia! Yeah, this story was a little more meta than most of my science fiction, and if you’re not really into the world of sf fandom I can see why it didn’t really hit quite right. As for the email thing, don’t worry, you are only on my Joe Vasicek list!
