In this mind-blowing episode of Brave New Bookshelf, hosts Steph Pajonas and Danica Favorite welcome back prolific sci-fi author and technical innovator Malorie Cooper from The Writing Wives to explore the cutting edge of advanced AI workflows. Malorie shares her journey of building custom multi-agent AI systems, detailing how she co-authored a full-length novel and "sharded" a massive, 40-day continuous Claude conversation into specialized AI agents that coordinate tasks and communicate on a digital "mind board." From automating her schedule and coding custom software to using structured data as "sensory organs" for her AI assistants and training them to embrace uncertainty, Malorie’s data-driven insights offer a fascinating blueprint for the future of publishing and collaborative creation.
